any software to boost up apache2 performance on win2003 vds?

    If you're having a problem with the performance of Apache, something is DEFINITELY wrong. Look at the standard guides for performance tuning Apache. Under normal circumstances (i.e. a web site with < 108 hits per day), you should not need any performance tuning to make Apache work comfortably on even the most meagre specification server.

    If on the other hand, you're running any server-side applications (e.g. PHP), then this is probably where your problem lies.

    You should attempt to reproduce the performance problem on your development server (i.e. using tools such as ApacheBench) and try out various solutions to see what helps.

    You may also wish to benchmark stuff on production by enabling logging of the time taken for each request- read the Apache guide for more information. I've found this very useful to identify slow pages / requests.
