We have some problems wht the performance of an apache http server that we use as a proxy. The performance is way below what we expected.
- Apache is version 2.0.59 - The hardware is a fully decked out SUN T2000, with Solaris 10. the proxy is used to forward requests from one web application (running on Jboss) to another. On our test system we can get the two webapps to communicate directly, but on our production environment this will not be possible. When the webapps communicate directly they can easily send 1'0 or more requests per seconds. When they communicate via the proxy we start to see requests timing out as soon as we send more than six requests per second. Surely an apache proxy on a T2000 ought to be able to handle more than 6 requests per second? I am not seeing any trace at all of the requests that time out in the access or error log of my proxy. The proxy does also appear to be running fine. It is started with the following workers: <IfModule prefork.c> StartServers 5 MinSpareServers 125 MaxSpareServers 150 MaxClients 250 MaxRequestsPerChild 0 </IfModule> But looking at the server-status page I get the impression it never needs more than about 20 workers... What could be the cause of this low performance? Krist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bremgarten b. Bern, Switzerland -- A: It reverses the normal flow of conversation. Q: What's wrong with top-posting?
