Hi,I first posted this question to comp.infosystems.www.servers.unix but had no response.
mod_proxy_balancer is cool - I like this, guys, thank you.I want to load balance a number of back-end worker/target servers that host one web application. This is easy to do :
<Proxy balancer://mysite> Order allow,deny Allow from all BalancerMember http://10.1.2.3:80 BalancerMember http://10.1.2.4:80 </Proxy> ProxyPass /r balancer://mysite/ ProxyPassReverse /r balancer://mysite/Now, what I want to do this time is configure my reverse proxy server to open several connections to each of the back end worker servers when the proxy starts to my back end hosts so that the tcp session can be pipelined, thus preventing the burden of creating and tearing down tcp sessions on the back end boxes for new visitor requests.
I found some documentation on the httpd.apache.org website which seemed to describe what I want to do :
Parameter Default Description min 0 Minumum number of connections that will always be open to the backend server. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.htmlHowever, this doesn't cleanly map on to the balancer model. If I add 'min=4' to the BalancerMember line this is ignored, and if I add the same to the 'ProxyPass' lines, apache does not understand the configuration.
Anyone thought of a way around this ? Is it a feature request ?
