My understanding is that the Cygwin port of Apache 1.x is also 
significantly slower than the native Apache 1.x but this didn't stop 
people from wanting a Cygwin version of 1.x. Or is there something in 
2.x (this thread MPM thing) that would make a Cygwin port of Apache 2.x 
much, much slower than the native one?

BTW: Thanks for volunteering for this. Does this mean that a Cygwin 
version of mod_php would be working again?
