It turns out that Apache does not report bytes sent, but instead reports the number of bytes that "could have been" sent. In most situations these numbers are the same, but in certain cases they can be very dramatically different. On this particular site, Apache is reporting *ten* times the data transferred then is actually going across the wire.
According to the documentation, the behaviour depends on the version of Apache used:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_log_config.html Note that in httpd 2.0, unlike 1.3, the |%b| and |%B| format strings do not represent the number of bytes sent to the client, but simply the size in bytes of the HTTP response (which will differ, for instance, if the connection is aborted, or if SSL is used). The |%O| format provided by |mod_logio <http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_logio.html>| will log the actual number of bytes sent over the network. -- Klaus Johannes Rusch [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.atmedia.net/KlausRusch/ +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | TO UNSUBSCRIBE from this list: | http://lists.meer.net/mailman/listinfo/analog-help | | Analog Documentation: http://analog.cx/docs/Readme.html | List archives: http://www.analog.cx/docs/mailing.html#listarchives | Usenet version: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.analog.general +------------------------------------------------------------------------
