<h2><a name="introduction" id="introduction">Introduction</a></h2>
<p>The Apache HTTP Server is designed to be a powerful and
flexible web server that can work on a very wide variety of
platforms in a range of different environments. Different
platforms and different environments often require different
features, or may have different ways of implementing the same
feature most efficiently. Apache has always accommodated a wide
variety of environments through its modular design. This design
allows the webmaster to choose which features will be included
in the server by selecting which modules to load either at
compile-time or at run-time.</p>
<p>Apache 2.0 extends this modular design to the most basic
functions of a web server. The server ships with a selection of
Multi-Processing Modules (MPMs) which are responsible for
binding to network ports on the machine, accepting requests,
and dispatching children to handle the requests.</p>
<p>Extending the modular design to this level of the server
allows two important benefits:</p>
<ul>
<li>Apache can more cleanly and efficiently support a wide
variety of operating systems. In particular, the Windows
version of Apache is now much more efficient, since
<code class="module"><a href="./mod/mpm_winnt.html">mpm_winnt</a></code> can use native
networking features in place of the POSIX layer used in
Apache 1.3. This benefit also extends to other operating
systems that implement specialized MPMs.</li>
<li>The server can be better customized for the needs of the
particular site. For example, sites that need a great deal of
scalability can choose to use a threaded MPM like
<code class="module"><a href="./mod/worker.html">worker</a></code> or <code class="module"><a href="./mod/event.html">event</a></code>, while sites requiring
stability or compatibility with older software can use a
<code class="module"><a href="./mod/prefork.html">prefork</a></code>.</li>
</ul>
<p>At the user level, MPMs appear much like other Apache
modules. The main difference is that one and only one MPM must
be loaded into the server at any time. The list of available
MPMs appears on the <a href="mod/">module index page</a>.</p>

<div class="section">
<h2><a name="choosing" id="choosing">Choosing an MPM</a></h2>
<p>MPMs must be chosen during configuration, and compiled into
the server. Compilers are capable of optimizing a lot of
functions if threads are used, but only if they know that
threads are being used.</p>
<p>To actually choose the desired MPM, use the argument
<code>--with-mpm=<em>NAME</em></code> with the
<code class="program"><a href="./programs/configure.html">configure</a></code> script. <em>NAME</em> is the name of the
desired MPM.</p>
<p>Once the server has been compiled, it is possible to
determine which MPM was chosen by using <code>./httpd
-l</code>. This command will list every module that is compiled
into the server, including the MPM.</p>

<div class="section">
<h2><a name="defaults" id="defaults">MPM Defaults</a></h2>
<p>The following table lists the default MPMs for various operating
systems. This will be the MPM selected if you do not make another
choice at compile-time.</p>
