Re: Apache load balancer, etc (Apache Users)

At this point nGinx, HAProxy, Lighthttpd seemed ~equivalent in speed. Apache was slower however, read repose to Jim's comment and questions ....

	Apache	Nginx	HAProxy	Lighttpd
Alter Ratio of Traffic to Hosts	Yes	Yes	Yes	?
Send to 2 Hosts	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes
Implement Persistent Connection	Yes	Paid Only	Yes	Not Working
Handle HTTPS Connection	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes
Terminate SSL at Load Balancer	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes
Pass thru SSL Connection	Yes	Yes	Yes	Yes

Have been comparing Apache load balancing with some other possibilities

As expected can do just about anything you want with Apache but the performance testing between Apache load balancing and nginx, haproxy, lighthttpd has Apache noticeably slower.

Any tips on config tuning to optimize Apache load balancing performance?

Any comments on open source software load balancers you folks have used that you recommend?

Thanks
