Bronson" Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Subject: slowness on 6.0 with apache2.2 (from src) X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 21 Jan 2006 12:56:15 -0000 I installed 6.0 and cvsup'd to the security fixes and rebuilt world. All went well. Then i installed apache2.2 from src (not ports) with a basic: ./configure --enable-so --enable-ssl It installed and runs. However, here is my issue: My main web page has 1 image per se. However, it is comprised of 32 little images... What I am seeing is that each image comes down 1 by 1 SLOWLY and apache2.2 spawns tons of child processes! Under OpenBSD/Solaris, I see a completely different thing...the image comes up instantly and apache only spawned 1 extra child. I used the SAME config files on all 3 OSs and the same hardware/drives/etc. This by the way is all over my internal LAN...so it never hits the internet. With all the variables being equal - but the OS. Since things work excellent on OpenBSD/Solaris, what is it that freebsd is not doing (or doing differently)? Any thoughts on this? -JD
