suEXEC require CGI mode, and slow down the scripts. I did them like this:
1. Install php as DSO mode. (for max speed and low secure)
2. Make a seperate CGI install with --enable-force-cgi-redirect, place php to cgi-bin
3 For more secure with suEXEC, choose one of the following method:
3-1: Place a .htaccess file containing this to override main config:
AddType application/x-httpd-wphp php
Action application/x-httpd-wphp /cgi-bin/php
All php files in subdirectory will be protected.
3-2: add following in httpd.conf:
AddType application/x-httpd-wphp sphp
Action application/x-httpd-wphp /cgi-bin/php
then each sensitive php file should be renamed to .sphp
Add "php_value doc_root /home/user/html_docs" to each virtual host directive in httpd.conf
