Hi,

Occassionally (but often enough to trigger our monitoring tools) a tomcat
page is generated way too slow, it takes then appr. 300 sec.

When I look at the logging I observe the following:

Tomcat access log: reports that the response is generated in a couple of
milliseconds.
mod_jk log: reports that the response is generated is just over 300 seconds
Apache: reports that the response take anything between 300 seconds and 600
seconds

The response is big enough to divide it into several AJP13 response chunks. 
The response has neither a Content-Length header or a Transfer-Encoding
header.  When accessing Tomcat through the HTTP connector, chunked encoding
is used.

My remarks on this:
I get the feeling that the AJP13_END_RESPONSE is not sent immediately by the
tomcat jk-connector, but something times out after 300 seconds on the tomcat
side, thereby forcing a flush on the connection. Because of the 300 seconds
timeout I think it has something todo with the Keep-Alive header
The browser sends a "Keep-Alive: 300" header, this header is send to tomcat. 
Tomcat somehow honours this header and closes the connection after 300
seconds.

Solutions?:
- will adding 'JkOptions +FlushPackets' to the apache config help?
- can I somehow disable sending the Keep-Alive header to tomcat and will
that help?

Any ideas/remarks?
