Thx for the reply. Yes I know all that. The point is putting sth in
the Apache config requires an Apache restart. For settings that
might change frequently this is not an option. At least not on
heavily loaded servers. So it seems I'm out of luck - or need to
patch it in (although I'd rather avoid this).
If the box is heavily loaded, then having to seek for two *extra*
files (for every single web request) will have a performance hit. If
availability is important, cluster the site across several boxes and
use something like ultramonkey.org or a http reverse proxy to split
the load across two boxes. Then you can take a box out of the live
pool in order to make your config changes, and availability is not hurt.
