Hello,
we use mod_rewrite with option [P] to rewrite request URLs and proxy them to internal application servers. We use the following configuration for mod_proxy to fetch the whole content from the application server as fast as possible:
ProxyIOBufferSize 131072
The question is: when does apache (1.3.26 in our case) log the request to the access_log. Example:
client -> apache -> jboss/jetty
The jetty request log said the request took 50ms.
Apache logged the request with 52ms.
The client fetched the content in 270ms.
It seems to me that apache logged the request while still delivering the content (from the proxy-io-buffer) to the client. Is this the expected behaviour?
We spotted this discrepancy during high load phases (couple of hundreds request/sec).
Any hints?
Regards,
Dirk
