Apache (and Zeus) enthusiasts may find this recent press release by Zeus
Technology to be of interest:

  http://www.zeus.com/news/articles/030707-001/

"Zeus Technology, the world's leading internet infrastructure software
vendor today announced a new benchmark for its Zeus Load Balancer
product that shows it accelerates Apache web server delivery by a factor
of a hundred."

They say the Zeus Load Balancer implements a buffering system that
enables Apache to service page requests without having to wait for
network latency.  This makes it possible for Apache to release system
resources immediately instead of keeping them open for the duration of a
(typically slow) internet connection, thereby improving performance.
