Well, after a lot of digging and debugging, I found a hack that seems to fix my issue. If I modify the srclib/apr/support/unix/waitio.c file so that the line timeout = f ? f->timeout / 1000 : s->timeout / 1000; becomes timeout = f ? f->timeout / 100 : s->timeout / 100; (10 times the timeout), then things start working. Unfortunately, despite my best efforts, I can't figure out 1) where the apr_wait_for_io_or_timeout function is being called that leads to this timeout 2) what the actual timeout is 3) where I could modify said timeout Anyone here with some knowledge on the guts of the Unix IO handlers?
