    Hi guys,

    Is the httpd.conf file read with every page request? Or is it stored in the server's internal memory?

    I see that each of my vhosts contains about 40 lines of code. I wonder... I only have a few vhosts now, but if I ever have 500 vhosts (that would be cool :D) then it would mean 500 x 40 lines of code = 20.000 lines of code. Would that be a problem? Or no problem at all?

    I don't know where it's stored, but it's not read with every page request.
    That's why you need to restart Apache after httpd.conf changes.

    Depending on the server and other things, you could have 1000's of accounts on your server. Restarting Apache might take a bit more time to reload of course.
