How much RAM in the server ? Number of hits per day on that server across all domains and sites ? Amount in MBytes of content in web accessible directories ? How much of that is typically served on an average day ? how slow is slow... are we talking 1sec ? 10 seconds ? 1 Minute ?


Are you logs set to resolve names ? Or are they the default Apache httpd logs that only show IP addresses in the first field of the logs. The name server that the web server points to for name resolution in "/etc/resolv.conf" is a name server that can resolve recursive queries ?

I've also posted this message to the httpd list, but was hoping that someone
here would also have some ideas on helping to troubleshoot this problem.

I have a RH ES3 server running Apache/2.0.46 that's intermittently being a
little flaky/slow.  SSH and other services consistently respond quickly, and
the HTTPD service usually does as well, but every now and then it gets slow
and pauses for a long time before responding.  Since other network services
are responding quickly, I don't think it's a network or hardware related
problem, but I could be wrong (happens all the time).

This happens for simple static HTML pages without any includes, scripting,
etc.  Top shows CPU use at 99.4% idle, and doesn't spike during page
requests.  I don't think it's a reverse DNS resolution issue, I've checked
the config in every place I can think of.  I have this same (I think) setup
on several other boxes without any problems.

Anyone have any useful ideas on how I can attack this problem from a
troubleshooting perspective?  I've just about exhausted my Linux
administration knowledge (and that ain't sayin much).

Ideas?
