Benchmarking HTML, PHP, and Node.js Results

Just some raw AB output from my quick and dirty Hello World benchmarks against Node.js.
I ran it against an /index.html file that only had Hello World in it, along with an
/index.php file that had an echo 'Hello World'; in it.  Both of those tests were run
against Apache2 with mod_php5 using the default deb files from Ubuntu 9.04.

The node.js test was run using the example found on http://tinyclouds.org/node/ minus
the setTimeout() call.
