The 2.3 branch is a testing branch (that was alpha before 2.3.11, now is beta after 2.3.11).

What we will see is 2.4 (general/public release). And it won't really be stable / product-ready until about 6 months after: 2.4.8.

The MPM for Windows is really great, it takes full advantage of the threaded nature of processes on Windows ... You can spin up 100s of threads in 1 process without much of an impact and have each thread do 1 connection (with a low 1 or 2 seconds keepalive to keep the client).

I'm mostly interested in Apache on Windows and have toyed around with the idea of including v2.3 in my WAMP distribution ( http://www.devside.net/server/webdeveloper ) in the experimental branch, with also some MySQL replacements such as MariaDB and Drizzle.
