Re: [users@httpd] Hard disk I/O

My experience with ESX is that when VM is freshly restarted, disk speed is close to bare metal, but longer the VM is up the worse it gets. In my case it went from 60MB/s to cca 1.5MB/s. b. On 18 November 2011 00:15, Igor Cicimov icici...@gmail.com wrote: Hmmm that's a pretty bad disk read I

Any allow,deny directives in use? That coupled with hostname (i.e. localhost) turns reverse lookups back on. What if you telnet to you apache and issue the request manually, does it wait for 10 seconds before spitting out the content? Did you strace the server process? b. On 9 November 2011

Can't reproduce it with the same versions/arch. Although I have noticed those urls lately on one of servers I am taking care of. The only difference is: i'm using *:80 as Listen address, not IP:80. b. On 24 October 2011 18:02, Svenne Krap svenne.li...@krap.dk wrote: Hi. I am currently

This means that your httpd process is stuck waiting for file descriptor number 7. You should now look at what this file descriptor is. lsof command is useful here: lsof -p PID where PID is the PID number of the stuck process. In the fourth column look for number 7 followed by either r, w or u (or

Hi everybody! I have noticed that Apache (2.2.14/linux) is causing a lot of page faults while serving any request, be it static file or some application server stuff. Correlation goes like this: - benchmark is started with 4 ab processes with 32 clients each. - benchmark results at around 2k
