PHP SuExec doesn't appear to be enabled on my VPS, do you recommend it be enabled? Any benefits or downsides of doing so?

Well I kept mine off just do not like it.
But many do like it for it is said to help keep PDP scripts more secure from what I understand. But the thing is there are many PHP scripts out there as written just do not play nice with PHPsuexec and it can be a pain figuring out what dose play nice with it. Till everyone or most everyone catches up to a standard of 0755 and 0644 I won't bother with it myself.

Alright. I asked support about it and they said...
"We recommend that unless you need PHPSuExec that it not be enabled. It can cause security concerns." I just wanted to get a few opinions and see. Thanks for the quick reply Skipdawg
