I can understand that but in some applicaitons (online payment transactions
for example), proper operation is more important than performance.

BTW I joined this converstaion late, but I seem to have trouble with POSTed
formes where the application may take several seconds to to processes before
sending anything to the browser. My application is several forms in a wizard
style process, where you fill out information, click select, and get taken
to the next form. The last form may take up to 30 seconds to process, and
seems that 5-10% of the time has trouble displaying the last page. Any
ideas?

Thanks!

That's essentially what the config file below does.

In general, it leads to lousy performance. Keepalives were
a very important HTTP performance improvement.
