I have doing some stress tests on my apache2 install (using simple curl posts) and have noticed a strange delay after it handles a large number of requests (150-200+). The strange part is that during the delay, cpu usage is 0% and memory usage doesn't change. So what's happening in this 2 second void? Is there a way to eliminate this delay? Some notes: The post data is small (482 bytes). The requests are streamed in one after another. I don't know if curl is doing any parallel threading in the background. The handler simply echos the data back out so no fancy processing. All traffic is on an isolated LAN. The delays seems to occur at regular intervals.
