I view Apache in the same way that I view OpenSSL. I do not mean that as a bad thing. I like that, with OpenSSL, there are various obscure—but useful—SSL/TLS-related functionality available. For those who are curious, it was S/MIME encryption and signing (at the time I was playing around with signed/encrypted Apple configuration profiles). With Apache, you can do remarkable things, and remarkable _combinations_ of things. I've looked at the Apache configuration behind some high-traffic web servers, and I am amazed that Apache can handle it with no problem. As always, use the right tool for the job.
