Hi, I've got Apache httpd 2.4.62 running as a reverse proxy on Windows. I'm using mod_cache/mod_cache_disk to cache the files retrieved from an upstream server so that other clients making the same request will have a shorter trip. I'm trying to use mod_bw to throttle the bandwidth used by clients requesting cached content. So far the behavior I see is:
1. After service restart, the first download of the cached content is
throttled as expected
2. Subsequent requests for the same content are not throttled and use
max bandwidth
I'm specifying the directives inside a <Location> as I only want
requests from this URL path to be throttled.
LoadModule bw_module modules/mod_bw.so
<IfModule bw_module>
<Location "/my_path">
BandWidthModule On
ForceBandWidthModule On
MaxConnection 127.0.0.1 0
BandWidth 127.0.0.1 0
MaxConnection all 50
BandWidth all 1048576
</Location>
</IfModule>
I've tried this configuration both inside and outside of a
<VirtualHost> but the behavior is similar. Anyone have experience
using mod_bw with a cache? Or suggestions on another way to achieve
this? Thanks.
Patrick
