Hi Amit,

One other thing:

I'm getting the impression that you also have a custom server. If it's
an identical configuration across all server instances, than you also
have to prove that it's not the server. Again, I'd code a simple HTTP
server in Perl (because there's no problem so intractable that it
can't be made worse with a Perl application) and use it to test
against your application.

Cheers,
jec
