Hi Chris.
The directive KeepAlive is very important, mainly on sites that serves
static resources.
This directive allows you control the persistency of connections.
If your site have little dynamic content, I really believe that you must
activate KeepAlive and adjust the directive MaxKeepAliveRequest.
Some versions of browsers (Netscape or MS IE) have problems with KeepAlive,
however thhe newset ones don�t.
You must be careful when using Keep Alive with downloading to avoid a few
clients to use all the Web Server Resources for many time.
I would like to know what the presented explanation by the list.
Bye. Danilo.
