Hi Alexey, Thanks for your response. Yes I know there is someting wrong, and I need to find out what. I have tried both v2.2.3 and 2.2.4 of httpd. All options in config file were left to their default values, and I have only added two virtual hosts and few mod_proxy rules. We are running httpd on a machine with 4 AMD Opetran processors and 8GB RAM running RHEL 4. Any pointers to help me debug will be very helpful. thanks Nilesh On 4/8/07, Alexey Polyakov <alexey.polyakov@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:

Looks like there's something terribly wrong with your config, like resolve hostnames turned on in Apache config. mod_proxy shouldn't add more than 200-300 microseconds for such small requests on modern hardware. -- Alexey Polyakov --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
