Another thing to try out if you can distinguish static from dynamic by the url pattern is to use [ns_pools] to set up the server so that all static content is served from one threadpool and the slow dynamic pages from a different pool. These would still be ordinary conn threads (no background delivery), but it would keep the static requests from one user from queuing behind the dynamic pages from a different user. I haven't completely thought through exactly how this would work, but my first impression is that it would mean longer queuing times for dynamic requests, but more responsive servicing of static ones, so that pages would be slower to start but faster once they started. -J ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
