Of course, for me, change management means, I make the change. Hasn't been too bad. Switching to nginx is currently on the if-it-aint-broke-dont-fix-it list. :) Good point re: management.

Switching to nginx is currently on the if-it-aint-broke-dont-fix-it list. :)

Down side: any changes require a restart (albeit graceful) of Apache. Not recommended for Apache servers with a fair number of domains, or for shared hosting servers. Maintainability goes down a bit too, requiring all developers to now have root access or go through change management to modify the Apache config. Is it worth the 3%? Who knows. My reco: switch to nginx/lighttpd and ditch Apache. It's a hog. :) Good tip, I’ve used it for awhile. Down side: any changes require a restart (albeit graceful) of Apache.
