Re: PHP5 static module apache 1.3.x compile issues

Thanks Rasmus. I am looking to improve the speed at which php executes through apache (and using a static module seemed to be helpful in PHP4). I don't see any explaination of how to build a non-pic (position independent code) dso for apache on the PHP website. Do I just add the option "--with-pic" to do that?
