Optimal Apache22 configuration

[Marcio Cicero]

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your input.

As far as I can remember there were experimental support for kqueue polling events on apache2 which I remember as nice performance improvement. But unfortunately I can't find any info regarding kqueue for apache22. 

Is this possible for apache22?

TIA
Regards,
Marcio
