Hi,

i have searched for this around the web and i can't find the right answer for my question.

basically i want to know if i can get better performance with nginx than with apache (in php apps), and i'm not involving static content (where i know nginx is better).

the sites are a widely collection of scripts with a lot of variables, using old not OOP oriented code and new websites using classes and smarty. the sites are very dynamic, changes parts in each request.

i want to avoid suing nginx for static content and apache for php, so for that i;m asking, if it worth the transition in performance terms.

my main confusion comes where i have seen benchmarks using wordpress and wp-supercache plugin, that could make it better for nginx than a custom sites with the features i already described. i have seen other benchmarks that just not show a big difference between them (around 5%)

thanks in advance for any help :D
