<h1>Apache Configuration Best Practices</h1>
<h2>Performance</h2>
<h3>setting_foo</h3>
It is recommended that setting_foo be somewhere between bar and baz.
<h3>httpdconf</h3>
If possible, move settings from .htaccess to httpdconf for better performance.
<h2>Security</h2>
<h3>Directory/file permissions</h3>
All Drupal file and directory permissions should be 0644, with the exception of the files directory which should be 0777.
<h2>PHP</h2>
<h3>User</h3>
PHP should run as a different user than Apache.
