Great, that makes total sense and seems to have worked well. I think it
looks like for article views, 1.12 is performing better than 1.9 now, thanks
for the help.
For opcode caching, we're using eaccelerator, should we be using something
else? What does WP use?
Also, I noticed that the PHP sapi name for WP is just apache, while ours is
apache2handler. Could there be a difference in terms of performance between
the 2? How do you go about creating just an apache module?
Thanks,
Travis
