ANNOUNCING RELEASE 1.4 OF THE NCSA HTTPD
NCSA httpd Release 1.4 is now available from
ftp://ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Web/httpd/Unix/ncsa_httpd/httpd_1.4
It includes a significant performance improvement over Release 1.3.
(See http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/InformationServers/Performance/V1.4/report.html)
The performance improvement was achieved by pre-forking child processes
and code optimizations. A complete list of the NCSA httpd enhancements
is available at http://hoohoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu/docs/Upgrade.html.
The 1.4 documentation is available at
http://hoohoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu/docs/Overview.html, but we
are still updating some areas.
We will be using HyperNews to track bugs, discuss possible
enhancements and for FAQ and RAQ (recently asked questions).
Please watch http://union.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HyperNews/get/www/ncsa-httpd.html
for future developments.
Sincerely,
