Thanks Joshua. My apache setup talks to tomcat using mod_ajp. One last question on the behavior of Apache. Say, there is a page that is in the cache which has expired. A client makes a request for that page. Apache looks in the cache, finds that the content has expired so contacts tomcat to fetch a fresh page. Lets say that the fetch takes 10 secs. In those 10 secs, if there are additional requests for that same page would apache send all those requests to tomcat increasing the load on tomcat ?
This particular topic has been actively discussed on the dev list of late. I believe that, indeed, you will get all the requests passed back until the first request has finished caching. I don't remember sure if there is a fix in the works for that or not.
