Re: [AOLSERVER] AOLServer+pound problem

[Joseph Kondel]

I've not used pound but do use HAProxy and have found it quite capable. Some say it's a bit more difficult to setup for the average user ( mostly because it has A LOT of features / options ) but I doubt it would give anyone on this list a problem.

Give it a look if you are unable to solve the pound issue.

Hello!


cookie-based virtual hosts. Is nginx good for me?

P.S. Russian is my own language and can read nginx documentation.

As example my pound configuration:

   Service
       HeadDeny "X-SSL-.*"
       HeadRequire "Host:.*offline.mts.mobigroup.ru.*"
       HeadRequire "Cookie: .*session=branch%3Dstable&unit%3D1"
       BackEnd
           Address 127.0.0.1
           Port    8001
       End
   End

   Service
       HeadDeny "X-SSL-.*"
       HeadRequire "Host:.*offline.mts.mobigroup.ru.*"
       HeadRequire "Cookie: .*session=branch%3Dstable&unit%3D3"
       BackEnd
           Address 127.0.0.1
           Port    8003
       End
   End

...

   Service
       HeadDeny "X-SSL-.*"
       HeadRequire "Host:.*offline.mts.mobigroup.ru.*"
       BackEnd
           Address 127.0.0.1
           Port    8000
       End
   End

I bring it up because when researching which LB to use ( pound, haproxy, nginx, etc... ) I found a couple of sites mentioning how resource intensive pound seemed to be. I'm now have problem with AOLServer (version 4.5.1) and pound (2.4.3.1). For 500+ active users my pound SSL proxy is not effective (for Core Quad server Load Average <= 2.0 and system idle is about 0.5 but response time is more than 1 second! AOL can serve pages fast but pound is "bottle neck").
