a somewhat interesting discussion on the subject was recently on 
slashdot, i suggest reading at least the blog entries linked in the main 
story blurb: http://slashdot.org/apache/04/12/21/1837209.shtml 
 
the "bad stuff" you're referring to is the threading problem, which is 
completely solved if you just use the "prefork" MPM in apache 2, which 
AFAIK is the default on linux.  not sure about Win32. 
 
as for a performance improvement... it isn't hard to setup apache 2 on 
the same server as apache 1 listening on a different port, then do 
benchmarks and see for yourself.
