Your Q3 has two concepts mixed together. You’re asking if it is sent as a stream or as an unencrypted message.
I don’t understand what you’re really asking about it being a ‘stream’ or what is behind your question. You may have to expand on
that part of your question if it’s important.
Regarding encryption, that depends on how your ProxyPass directive is written. If the target URL uses the ‘https’ scheme, then it
will be encrypted.

Hi,,
3) I am using mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http to proxy request to backend server.
With http we have stream flow of message.
1. Don't know, should be easy to test.
3. I think this depends on which actual proxy module you are using. (There are parameters for controlling the buffer size and when to flush)
Hi Team,
I have following doubt, please help me to understand
1) I am using worker MPM and according to architecture, each child process creates one worker listener thread which has mutex and listens on the port. If I am using two ports 80 and 443 then whether each child creates two listener thread
to listen on each port(80 and 443) or it will create only one listener thread.
2) When mod_cgi forks the another process and sends the response back to client then the communication between http process and forked process happens through pipe or socket.
3) When we proxy https request to backend server like tomcat then whether message transfers takes place in stream manner or it sends the whole message to backend server after decrypt the message.
Please let me know if I am not clear.
