Hi All, I am curious. Is Apache designed such that if a request comes back quickly from a server it passed the request to that and if the client connected to Apache is slow in disconnecting for some reason (internet qos for example) we can deduce it is a client or internet issue? I would think the sockets connected to say a App server like maybe Tomcat are independent to some degree from the sockets the client uses on Apache so if you have a fast App server the network path from Apache to Tomcat (assuming Tomcat on a different physical box) that is not affected even if the client does not disconnect right away due to perhaps the network from Apache to the client or a very slow client. Just curious. -Tony ____________________________________________________________________________________ You rock.
