Hi Sekhar,
Here is a sanitized copy of our httpd-ssl.conf file. Format is identical, just
names changed. Note, we are enforcing client auth between the mod_proxy and
Tomcat connector. Not end user client auth, just proxy.
Thanks,

Hi Fellow Travelers!
I have an application team that is seeing dismal performance when utilizing the
Apache HTTPD front-end using mod_proxy_http to proxy a back-end Tomcat server
over SSL. If they bypass the Apache and go direct to Tomcat, everything is nice
and fast. However, if they do the same actions via the proxy, it takes 3 to 4
minutes to render the pages, that is if they even display.
This is way too slow! Can you please share httpd configuration? Especially load
balancer and compression part.
Looking for some ideas as to how to improve the performance.
