> The first step in my opinion could be a kind of help to find a way for a proper, good operating mode with the new versions where we can find for the first a way for a moderate hardware consumption. The RAM usage seems to be currently a double of the existing apache/php installation which is in my opinion a no go especially for all the weak boards (256MB like e.g. the ALIX are a problem i think) out there. Unfortunatly the worker mpm mode has the lowest RAM consumption in my testings but it seems to be also the weakest in a security manner. Since the "worker" MPM uses threads and the question comes up if PHP are really thread save where i have in fact currently no deeper insights. The alternative might be to use prefork MPM which uses instead of threads processes and should therefor be more save but needs in my testings also more RAM. This situation is currently a dilemma where i´am not sure how to solve this but may also some other people in here have the time, knowhow and the muse to find a good solution with this.
> Another section might be to try some more out with modsecurity (made a separated package) which is really in the beginning of testings and uses currently only default configs, so this can be seen as a playground for the first. There are also more possibilities with this versions where i made some switches in configure on but may too much or not the really useful ones, for this questions i hope to find some more testers which are interested to optimize this work so we can start at the end to make a working list of how we step further with the merge requests to deliver it step by step for a potential last overview.
