You should try to play with the "maxconn" parameter on the server line in order to reduce the number of concurrent connections on apache. It will surely reduce the response time and increase the number of reqs per second. In my experience, apache is performing the best between 30 and 200 concurrent requests. I would expect something like 20-30% better performance under load with "maxconn 100" than without when you load it with 1000 concurrent requests.
But I'm not using apache, I'm using erlang and mochiweb, I'll experiment with the number though, thanks again. - -- Valentino Volonghi aka Dialtone Now running MacOS X 10.5 Home Page: http://www.twisted.it http://www.adroll.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAkmebOcACgkQ9Llz28widGXiQwCgpvJ8UzLZozAwdy1edM2L0bME uRUAoLNcZ1O7FyGQwO0nDZaNq/ZavWgH =TSNY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
