Hi All,

I have also the same problem.

You seems to forget the exact role of a CRL. 
Remember : CRL X509 format is a list of Revoked Certificates. Thus, the goal 
here is to stop the access to someone that has a revoked certificates.

For a security point of view, waiting until the CRL Expiration date is not a 
good solution (can be 2 days or more). You put your business at risk. In fact, 
According to some PKI Policies (CSP - Cerificate Security Policies), depending 
of your working environment, (as in my case), the Revoked certificates must be 
blocked maximum 10 seconds after the effective revoke. Thus in my case, soon as 
the CRL has been updated, you have to reload it, and to block any access. This 
is not only special to my case, any companies (like insurrance,financial, ...) 
has these types of rules.

More : A crl, on our case is published every 30 min, even if no revoke occurs 
(to avoid overwritte of our CRL and ensure that all chains is working). or 
immediately after a revoke. His expiration date (next update) is at least 48 
hours (this is only for business continuity, to have time to make intervention 
in  case of CRL distribution problem or whatever).

More : We are also using Appliance Reverse proxy hardware, XML security 
Gateway, Software Application Firewall Hardware. All of them has these types of 
feature about the CRL. It load it, else based on a regular verification time 
(ie every 5 seconds), or immediatly after it detects the change. It's depends 
of the product. Why this will be different in Apache ? IIS of microsoft is 
working also like that.

Regards
