Description:
------------
http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.apache2.php says:
> We do not recommend using a threaded MPM in production with Apache2. 
> Use the prefork MPM instead, or use Apache1. 
> For information on why, read the related FAQ entry on using Apache2 with a threaded MPM

Isn't that non-Windows specific? What is it doing on the Windows page?

It's indeed non windows specific, but as the default MPM on windows is threaded, the warning suits here just fine.

I meant that it applies to anything but Windows.
I assumed there's only one MPM for Windows (can't find any other binary on the Apache site). Is this not correct and is there are preform version of Apache 2 for Windows?

Oops, some typos:
Is this not correct and is there a prefork
version of Apache 2 for Windows?

You can compile Apache2 on Windows with prefork mpm

Thus it fits.
