From: Lee ChihCheng <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Subject: Re: os-windows/3815: Keep Alive option let server response delay at first request. Date: Thu, 29 Apr 1999 20:41:05 +0800 Dear sir: Sorry, My earlier post is not really right. After few days watch, I found the reason is because my site is too busy. Now my Apache setting is like: ------------------------- KeepAlive Off MaxKeepAliveRequests 0 KeepAliveTimeout 20 MaxRequestsPerChild 0 ThreadsPerChild 256 ------------------------- And I use http://mysitename/server-staus to check it, screen show: 130 requests currently being processed, 126 idle servers So, When I switch to "KeepAlive On", the "MaxKeepAliveRequests" is not enough. (I think maybe 300~800 users online, if keep-alive) I don't understand why Apache server never tell me "too busy", Apache just delay each web-page "first" 3~4 seconds. (sometimes 10~15 seconds) So, I disable KeepAlive now. However I hope user can keep-alive, But I found Apache's Windows version just support max 256 users keep-alive. it's too small for me. And I found the only way to expand this number is "modify the source, re-compiler it" but it's too hard for me... I hope the future version's apache can expand this limit. There is also a small problem. "Apache -k restart" can restart apache. but not immediately. If I send this command at PM23:30, the Apache will restart at AM1:00 ~ AM2:00 It's really too late. Thanks for your reply , and sorry for my broken english.
