compiling applications with Centos

I am evaluating porting solaris (apache, mysql, ssl) servers to Linux. I set up a Centos server to test out apache programs to see how they work out of the box. Now I want to recompile Apache to incorporate the options we used when compiling under Solaris.

I see posts that say never, never compile from source but if I have options that were not compiled in, how can I do that? Also, many of the modules are dynamically loaded which is supposed to result in slower response from httpd. How can I see that my compile time options correspond to the compiled binary that centos provides? Also, some modules I try to install are asking where apxs is, but since I didn't compile it, I don't know.

What is the opinion about compiling?

Thank you

NAME

       apacheconf - Apache configuration utility

SYNTAX

       apacheconf

       This  is  a  new  graphical  tool  to configure the common web server Apache in an easy and simple way. It supports the basic configuration
       options and even allows to set up multiple virtual hosts.

       None

FILES

       /usr/bin/apacheconf
       /usr/share/apacheconf/*
       /etc/alchemist/switchboard/apache.switchboard.adl
       /etc/alchemist/namespace/apache/local.adl

SEE ALSO

       httpd(8)

BUGS

       Not all possible checks for correct values are done yet.

       The current /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file is NOT parsed, so changing the configuration with apacheconf will overwrite any manual  changes
       to  the	httpd.conf  file or the changes done with apacheconf are discarded. In case of overwriting the manually editied file a backup file
       will be generated.
