I had a similar issue that was caused by caching. Do you have mod_cache or mod_disk_cache active? are they clearing properly?Skye Poier Nott wrote:Hi Joshua, I've tried changing MaxClients from 256 to 512 to 1024, no effect.I've tried changing from MPM prefork to worker, and twiddled threads per child, no effect.Just can't seem to get more than about 4 Mbit/sec out of the origin. I'll give dev@ a ping.Thanks, Skye On 19-Mar-08, at 12:28 PM, Joshua Slive wrote:On Tue, Mar 18, 2008 at 8:51 PM, Skye Poier Nott <skye@xxxxx> wrote:Hi, I am doing some load testing on a reverse proxy with apache 2.2 + mod_proxy and I'm getting terrible throughput, I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion. I have the following config, all on gigabit ethernet:1 origin server -> 2 mod_proxy servers -> 4 client simulators (flood)The origin and proxy servers are configured with 100 name-based virtual hosts, the proxy servers with config like this: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName w0099.example.com ProxyPass / http://10.100.10.XX:80/w0099/ ProxyPassReverse / http://10.100.10.XX:80/w0099/ </VirtualHost>When I start up flood on the client simulators (250 clients each), Ionly get about 4 Mbit/sec out of the origin server. I've tried twiddling all the settings in mod_proxy to no avail (like smax=64 max=512 ttl=120 min=8 acquire=1)If I set up lighttpd on the proxy servers, I fully saturate the gigEon the origin server (~500 Mbit/sec)What could explain this 125x difference in performance? Is there some sort of resource or lock or something contention in mod_proxy that Ishould know about?I'm not a mod_proxy performance expert (and you might need to ask onthe dev@httpd list to find one), but you should start with the basics:have you looked at the mod_status server-status output? Are youexceeding MaxClients? Is there anything interesting in the error log?Joshua. ---------------------------------------------------------------------The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info.
