Configuring Apache

I run Dokuwiki through the built-in Apache in OSX Lion (turned on by clicking Web Sharing in the Control Panel). This works well (after configuring PHP and CGI), but I am unhappy about how long it takes Apache to “wake up” in OSX Lion. I am thinking of using some php accelerator, or even completely changing the server, but haven't gotten that far.

This article inspired me to experiment with the configuration file. I unchecked all the modules listed, and some more, which meant that Apache refused to start. I put a few back in, and now it starts. This is completely unscientific, but this is the list I have now, and it seems to work (I will update this, if there is functionality missing and I need to add more modules).
