Learning about server

[William Prothero]

Simon:
Re the server installation, one thing that worries me is the server load. As a cgi, the livecode app needs to be loaded for every call, AFAIK, and would demand a lot from the server. It seemed that the installation where it is integrated into the Apache configuration would be best, but I was worried that I would screw up the other configuration items. like the php and sql configuration directives. So, I installed it, for test purposes, as a cgi.

This issue should be addressed in installation tutorials. FYI, I have a VPS hosted by liquidweb, which has fantastic customer support and reliability.
