Apache 2.0's main improvement over Apache 1.3 on Linux and BSD systems was the addition of Multiprocessing Modules (MPM) that specify how resources are allocated by Apache. When using a threaded MPM like "worker", Apache 2.0 tends to outperform Apache 1.3. When using the "prefork" MPM Apache 1.3 tends to outperform Apache 2.0.

* For the most reliable configuration Apache 1.3 is likely the best choice.
* For the most flexible configuration Apache 2.0 is likely the best choice.
* The most noticeable differences between Apache 2.0 and 2.2 are the available MPMs and some changes in configuration directives.
* EasyApache 3 does not provide PHP FastCGI support for Apache 1.3.
* The default recommended by cPanel is Apache 2.0.
