+<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>, while sites requiring
+ stability or compatibility with older software can use a
+ <code class="module"><a href="./mod/prefork.html">prefork</a></code>. In addition,
+ special features like serving different hosts under different
+ userids (<code class="module"><a href="./mod/perchild.html">perchild</a></code>) can be
+ provided.</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>
