But I'm more concerned at the choice of KeepAlive Off. What reason could you guys have for disabling this feature? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): httpd-2.0.52-12.1.ent & httpd-2.0.46-46.2.ent How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: N/A Additional info:
Sorry Joe, I should have thought this one through some more. Clearly KeepAlive can hurt a heavily loaded server. Perhaps with a very low value of KeepAliveTimeout (one or two seconds) then having keep-alives on is a benefit, but probably people in a position to care would know that anyway.
