Bump?  Anyone?

Thanks!

Hi all,

I have Apache used as a load balancer in front of a couple of Mongrels (ruby on rails application). Reading the documentation for Apache, I was under the impression that the requests would not be forwarded to my Mongrels, but would stop at Apache, at least until the Expires time.

Here's a typical request / response (1st time):

> GET / HTTP/1.1
> User-Agent: curl/7.16.3 (powerpc-apple-darwin9.0) libcurl/7.16.3 OpenSSL/0.9.7l zlib/1.2.3
> Host: xlsuite.com
> Accept: */*
>
< HTTP/1.1 200 OK
< Date: Fri, 13 Jun 2008 16:01:01 GMT
< Server: Mongrel 1.1.4
< Last-Modified: Thu Apr 03 11:19:22 UTC 2008
< Status: 200 OK
< Cache-Control: public;max-age=300
< Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
< Content-Length: 4458
< Expires: Fri Jun 13 16:06:01 +0000 2008
< Set-Cookie: session_id=744e857c1fdb806acbfc7b803f67fa13; path=/
< Vary: Accept-Encoding

Redoing the same request still hits one of my mongrel.

If I use ab while tailing the mongrel logs, I see the requests. My question is two-fold:

1. Have I configured this properly;
2. Should I use another caching provider ?

Having read a couple of messages on this list, I know mod_mem_cache might not be the best solution. This Apache is a software load balancer: it serves almost no static files.

Thanks for any help and have a nice day!
