I'm benchmarking one of our sites. After some debugging I have found that when the site has ssl enabled, performance starts to degrade very rapidly, even to the point of rendering the server useless after 20 concurrent users. The servers CPU resources are 2% at this point when Apache fails. So it's not a hardware limitation.

I suspect from your post that this is the flaw. Can you first try stressing only static documents (e.g. /images/* etc) and see if this happens with modperl still loaded; then try stressing static documents without loading modperl? Finally, if modperl is indicated, you need to be aware that modperl is very tightly coupled with the protocol filtering, and it's entirely possible that there is a negative interaction there. Please post your results. Bill --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
