crond gibts für windows, glaub sogar mit selber syntax, aber mal was anderes:
Docu von apache 1.3x
USR1 Signal: graceful restart
Note: prior to release 1.2b9 this code is quite unstable and shouldn't be used at all.
The USR1 signal causes the parent process to advise the children to exit after their current request (or to exit immediately if they're not serving anything). The parent re-reads its configuration files and re-opens its log files. As each child dies off the parent replaces it with a child from the new generation of the configuration, which begins serving new requests immediately.
wäre doch nen sauberer restart
oder noch besser, ohne das lästige restarten usw. :

wird ziemlich gut erklärt wie der apache "on the fly" den http request aufs filesystem legt, man muss also nur noch per perl/php script die Ordner erzeugen.
