imho its keyword engineering, but you can see given the history why nginx adopters aren't thinking that way.
- eddieroger 8y agoI don't know - I switched from Apache to NGINX because I preferred it's config formatting over writing XML when I stopped using things like CPanel. Many of the NGINX servers under my current role run the NGINX Lua module performing logic on over 1B requests per day. I do try to reduce dependency on modules, but that's not because it makes it too Apache-like, it's for simplicity's sake. If you don't want NGINX to have these features, don't compile it in, then boom. no longer bogged down.
