The problem is, that the server hangs sometimes under heavy load. The output of server-status is something like: ---------%<--------------- Apache Server Status for ...

[lines deleted] Srv Child Server number - generation PID OS process ID Acc Number of accesses this connection / this child / this slot M Mode of operation CPU CPU usage, number of seconds SS Seconds since beginning of most recent request Req Milliseconds required to process most recent request Conn Kilobytes transferred this connection Child Megabytes transferred this child Slot Total megabytes transferred this slot ---------%<--------------- As you see, the values of SS are very big, that usually appears on an idle child. I wonder if the server is reading from a new connection or waiting for the previous connection to finish. The server is reading data, but from whom? And why does this not time out. I changed the value of the Apache Timeout directive from 300 to 30, but it didn't help. Why is the connection not closed after some timeout? Is this an Apache bug? mod_status says, that some slots didn't serve any requests since over 1000 seconds, as can be seen in the column "SS". I have the same configuration with Apache 1.3, and there it works. I had to rewrite the mod_perl code becouse of the incompatibility with mod_perl 2.
