Hi all, We have a Apache httpd running with mod_proxy in front of a Tomcat server. We have noticed that httpd is slower than expected. After enabling logging of time-to-serve in both Tomcat and httpd, it turns out that while Tomcat can serve each request in less than a second, httpd in many cases takes 3-5 seconds (i.e., adding a delay of 3-4 seconds). I have a few queries: 1. How can I debug/profile where the time is being spent? mod_proxy should be faster than this. 2. What all things times logged by httpd/Tomcat in their log files include? I mean, does it include the time when a query arrives at the server to time when it is fully served. Or does it include time when query was issued from the client and time when the response reaches back the client. We have enabled server-status on httpd, and it shows something like: CPU Usage: u16.35 s15.57 cu0 cs0 - .00138% CPU load 1.07 requests/sec - 8.1 kB/second - 7.6 kB/request 10 requests currently being processed, 15 idle workers We are currently using prefork. Will changing the MPM to worker help? Please let me know if there are any good debugging tools available to track a request, and monitor time spent at each step. thanks Nilesh -- Nilesh Bansal. http://queens.db.toronto.edu/~nilesh/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
