First note that the performance difference only affect using the web
browser to view/restore backups, something you probably don't do that
often, not the performance of the backups operations which happen
separately. Also, if you don't have any other web sites on the same
server, you could simply set up backuppc to run with the same id as the
web server. I can't help with setting up another apache instance but
usually it involves duplicating whatever the stock configuration does
but using a different port number to avoid conflicts.
