Until now, for a long time, mine wasn't doing it either.
Part of the problem was suggested by someone on the Apache group;
there are two problems:
1. Both boxes have nscd, but it was not running on the CentOS
box. Now that I fixed that, all but the first connection
are rapid, as you might expect.
2. We still do not why the change in httpd.conf caused the
problem to appear. However, my belief that there was a
difference between the two machines is accounted for
by the difference in /etc/init.d/nscd . When I tried it
for the first time this morning, the box that previously
been fast was slow. No doubt, the nscd storage had
timed out.
Except that nscd was not set to run, it is probably not
specifically a CentOS problem. Perhaps I made a wrong
choice in setup?
Mike.
