Package: apache2-mpm-threadpool
Severity: minor

The current apache2-mpm-threadpool description is misleading. It
metnions that it is an experimental implementation. However it also
claims that "It is somewhat faster and less CPU intensive than the
worker model." According to the [1]most recent apache documentation,
this is no longer the case:

"The threadpool MPM can't match the performance of the worker MPM in
benchmark testing. As of 2.0.39, some of the key load-throtting concepts
from the threadpool MPM have been incorporated into the worker MPM. The
threadpool code is useful primarily as a research platform. For
general-purpose use and for any production environments, use worker
instead."

It seems to me that this description would be more appropriate for the
Debian package than the current Debian package description. At the very
least, it would be less misleading with respect to performance, and more
explicit about recommending worker for "general-purpose use and for any
production environments".
