http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41887 Summary: -T option unavailable for Apache 2.0.x -> available Product: Apache httpd-2 Version: 2.0-HEAD Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: Core AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Currently when httpd starts or when a graceful command is issued, it does a DocumentRoot check. When a DocumentRoot doesn't exist; it will produce a warning. The DocumentRoot check gets its information by 'statting' all the DocumentRoots from the config file. This check process might take some time depending on the number of DocumentRoots and the speed of the filesystem. Imagine the following: mass virtualhosting with 1000's of different DocumentRoots which are all located on a rather slow NFS mount. This is in fact my real life setup. This causes a problem; when changing the config, you normally like to issue a graceful restart. However with the number of DocumentRoots on my slow NFS mount this will take up several minutes, resulting in my server becoming less responsive/unavailable until the graceful is complete. Wich is *bad*. So I added an option to the httpd startup. A "-T" commandline argument (which was also available in 1.3.x). This option will skip the DocumentRoot check and start the server anyway. In my case this means I can do a graceful restart in a couple of seconds instead of minutes. So this option has greatly improved my server performance. I've been running my patched up Apache for over a week now: which handles about 50 hits/second and it runs great! -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
