What Hacker News says?
I'd like to know where the reports are that Apache 2.4 was faster than Nginx. The test in the post hardly seems exhaustive; most web servers do more than serve up a 9kb file on the loopback address. I have to imagine, that the actual 'report' was that 'apache 2.4 is faster than nginx in certain situations'. This would certainly seem to back that up: http://mondotech.blogspot.com/2012/02/apache-24-vs-nginx-ben...
