Re: Question about mod_status

Sounds like you should probably take a look at 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_persistent_connection to get an idea of what Keep-Alive means.

If you find that those 'K' connections are hogging up too much resources, you could try adjusting your KeepAliveTimeout and MaxKeepAliveRequests directives. See the documentation ( http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html ) for more information on those directives.

Also a more thorough guide on getting the most out of your Apache HTTPD server performance can be found here:  http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/PerformanceScalingUp 

Feel free to ask more specifics if the documentation isn't clear.

Kind regards,

Mathijs

Hi all,
I'm trying to optimize performance of my web server (Debian Squeeze 64bit, it's a VM virtual machine with 4 GByte RAM and 4 vCpu).
I'm using standard "deb" package and apache-prefork, with php running as module.

I think /server-status give me a lots of information, but how can I start customizing directive?
For example, if I see several "K" (keepalive), this is bad?
The problem is: during day I notice OOM errors, and website are responding slowly.
So, I'm trying to understand if I must raise my resources, or simply change my apache2.conf
Thankyou very much!
