Can > anyone help me interpret this result please? Pretty bad numbers actually, aren't you limited by the network bandwidth between ab and the server? What are the numbers from ab when it's running on the server (i.e. ab ... https://localhost/index.html)? The CPU usage looks high (20%) too for the requested load, but that's probably on mod_deflate (and TLS handshakes), how does "-H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate'" change things? Sorry, more questions than answers, but results on my (poor) laptop look like: $ bin/ab -k -n 10000 -c 1000 https://localhost:40443/250KB.bin ...
