Hello, Experimenting with an Apache Proxy, I noticed that in version 1.3 (the latest cvs snapshot) it behaves in a half-duplex fashion. That is, it doesn't read the backend server response until it have finished transmitting the client's request body. This is pretty annoying, mainly if the request involves a very large post (file upload), and the backend sever response, after the headers, says "Please wait patiently...". I wonder: are there any intentions to change this? It seems that full-duplex operation requires two threads per proxy, which is not how the Apache proxy server works. Is the situation different, or going to be different, in Apache 2? Just for reference, the Squid proxy doesn't suffer from this deficiency.
Thanks for you attention, Zvi. -- Dr. Zvi Har'El mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Department of Mathematics tel:+972-54-227607 Technion - Israel Institute of Technology fax:+972-4-8324654 http://www.math.technion.ac.il/~rl/ Haifa 32000, ISRAEL "If you can't say somethin' nice, don't say nothin' at all." -- Thumper (1942) Wednesday, 12 Sivan 5762, 22 May 2002, 6:03PM
