- <li>&#8220;Apache is a general webserver, which is designed to be
- correct first, and fast
- second. Even so, its performance is quite satisfactory. Most
- sites have less than 10Mbits of outgoing bandwidth, which
- Apache can fill using only a low end Pentium-based
- webserver.&#8221;
- </li>
- </ul>
- <p>However, this sentence was written a few years ago, and in the
- meantime several things have happened. On one hand, web server
- hardware has become much faster. On the other hand, many sites now
- are allowed much more than ten megabits per second of outgoing
- bandwidth. In addition, web applications have become more complex.
- The classic brochureware site is alive and well, but the web has
- grown up substantially as a computing application platform and
- webmasters may find themselves running dynamic content in Perl, PHP
- or Java, all of which take a toll on performance.
- </p>
- <p>Therefore, in spite of strides forward in machine speed and
- bandwidth allowances, web server performance and web application
- performance remain areas of concern. In this documentation several
- aspects of web server performance will be discussed.

- options for Apache httpd 2.2 and 2.3 as well as monitoring tools.
- Monitoring tools will allow you to observe your web server to
- gather information about its performance, or lack thereof.
- We'll assume that you don't have an unlimited budget for
- server hardware, so the existing infrastructure will have to do the
- job. You have no desire to compile your own Apache, or to recompile

-
- <p>The first task when sizing or performance-tuning your server is to
- find out how your system is currently performing. By monitoring
- your server under real-world load, or artificially generated load,
- you can extrapolate its behavior under stress, such as when your

- <p>The top tool ships with Linux and FreeBSD. Solaris offers
- `prstat'. It collects a number of statistics for the
- system and for each running process, then displays them
- interactively on your terminal. The data displayed is
- refreshed every second and varies by platform, but
- typically includes system load average, number of processes
- and their current states, the percent CPU(s) time spent
- executing user and system code, and the state of the
- virtual memory system. The data displayed for each process
- is typically configurable and includes its process name and
- ID, priority and nice values, memory footprint, and
- percentage CPU usage. The following example shows multiple

- <p>Top is a wonderful tool even though it&#8217;s slightly resource
- intensive (when running, its own process is usually in the
- top ten CPU gluttons). It is indispensable in determining
- the size of a running process, which comes in handy when
- determining how many server processes you can run on your
- machine. How to do this is described in '<a href="/httpd/PerformanceScalingUp#S">

-
- <h4><a name="free" id="free">free

-
- <p>This command is only available on Linux. It shows how much
- memory and swap space is in use. Linux allocates unused
- memory as file system cache. The free command shows usage
- both with and without this cache. The free command can be
- used to find out how much memory the operating system is
- using, as described in the paragraph '<a href="/httpd/PerformanceScalingUp#S">
- Sizing MaxClients
- </a>
- '. The output of free looks like this:

-
- <p>This command is available on many unix platforms. It

- without argument, it displays a status line for that
- moment. When a numeric argument is added, the status is
- redisplayed at designated intervals. For example, <code>
- vmstat 5
- </code>
- causes the information to reappear every five seconds.
- Vmstat displays the amount of virtual memory in use, how
- much memory is swapped in and out each second, the number
- of processes currently running and sleeping, the number of
- interrupts and context switches per second and the usage
- percentages of the CPU.

- <h4><a name="SE Toolkit" id="SE Toolkit">SE Toolkit
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>The SE Toolkit is a system monitoring toolkit for Solaris.
- Its programming language is based on the C preprocessor and
- comes with a number of sample scripts. It can use both the
- command line and the GUI to display information. It can
- also be programmed to apply rules to the system data. The
- example script shown in Figure 2, Zoom.se, shows green,
- orange or red indicators when utilization of various parts
- of the system rises above certain thresholds. Another
- included script, Virtual Adrian, applies performance tuning
- metrics according to.
- </p>
- <p>The SE Toolkit has drifted around for a while and has had
- several owners since its inception. It seems that it has
- now found a final home at Sunfreeware.com, where it can be
- downloaded at no charge. There is a single package for
- Solaris 8, 9 and 10 on SPARC and x86, and includes source
- code. SE Toolkit author Richard Pettit has started a new
- company, Captive Metrics4 that plans to bring to market a
- multiplatform monitoring tool built on the same principles
- as SE Toolkit, written in Java.

-
- <p>Given that DTrace is available for Solaris, FreeBSD and OS

- </p>
-
-
-
- <h4><a name="mod_status" id="mod_status">mod_status
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>The mod_status module gives an overview of the server
- performance at a given moment. It generates an HTML page
- with, among others, the number of Apache processes running
- and how many bytes each has served, and the CPU load caused
- by httpd and the rest of the system. The Apache Software
- Foundation uses mod_status on its own <a href="http://apache.org/server-status">
- web site
- </a>
- .If you put the <code>ExtendedStatus On
- </code>
- directive in your <code>httpd.conf
- </code>
- ,the <code>mod_status
- </code>
- page will give you more information at the cost of a little
- extra work per request.

- <h3><a name="Web Server Log Files" id="Web Server Log Files">Web Server Log Files
- </a></h3>
-
- <p>Monitoring and analyzing the log files httpd writes is one of
- the most effective ways to keep track of your server health and
- performance. Monitoring the error log allows you to detect
- error conditions, discover attacks and find performance issues.
- Analyzing the access logs tells you how busy your server is,
- which resources are the most popular and where your users come
- from. Historical log file data can give you invaluable insight
- into trends in access to your server, which allows you to
- predict when your performance needs will overtake your server
- capacity.
- </p>
-
-
- <h4><a name="Error Log" id="Error Log">Error Log
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>The error log will contain messages if the server has
- reached the maximum number of active processes or the
- maximum number of concurrently open files. The error log
- also reflects when processes are being spawned at a
- higher-than-usual rate in response to a sudden increase in
- load. When the server starts, the stderr file descriptor is
- redirected to the error logfile, so any error encountered
- by httpd after it opens its logfiles will appear in this
- log. This makes it good practice to review the error log
- frequently.
- </p>
- <p>Before Apache httpd opens its logfiles, any errors will be
- written to the stderr stream. If you start httpd manually,
- this error information will appear on your terminal and you
- can use it directly to troubleshoot your server. If your
- httpd is started by a startup script, the destination of
- early error messages depends on their design. The <code>
- /var/log/messages
- </code>
- file is usually a good bet. On Windows, early error
- messages are written to the Applications Event Log, which
- can be viewed through the Event Viewer in Administrative
- Tools.
- </p>
- <p>
- The Error Log is configured through the <code>ErrorLog
- </code>
- and <code>LogLevel
- </code>
- configuration directives. The error log of httpd&#8217;s main
- server configuration receives the log messages that pertain
- to the entire server: startup, shutdown, crashes, excessive
- process spawns, etc. The <code>ErrorLog
- </code>
- directive can also be used in virtual host containers. The
- error log of a virtual host receives only log messages
- specific to that virtual host, such as authentication
- failures and 'File not Found' errors.
- </p>
- <p>On a server that is visible to the Internet, expect to see a
- lot of exploit attempt and worm attacks in the error log. A
- lot of these will be targeted at other server platforms
- instead of Apache, but the current state of affairs is that
- attack scripts just throw everything they have at any open
- port, regardless of which server is actually running or
- what applications might be installed. You could block these
- attempts using a firewall or <a href="http://www.modsecurity.org/">
- mod_security
- </a>
- ,but this falls outside the scope of this discussion.
- </p>
- <p>
- The <code>LogLevel
- </code>
- directive determines the level of detail included in the
- logs. There are eight log levels as described here:
- </p>
- <table>
- <tr>
- <td>
- <p>
- <strong>Level
- </strong>
- </p>

- <tr>
- <td>
- <p> debug
- </p>
- </td>
- <td>
- <p> Debug-level messages
- </p>
- </td>
- </tr>
- </table>
- <p>The default log level is warn. A production server should
- not be run on debug, but increasing the level of detail in
- the error log can be useful during troubleshooting.
- Starting with 2.3.8 <code>LogLevel
- </code>
- can be specified on a per module basis:
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>
- LogLevel debug mod_ssl:warn
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>
- This puts all of the server in debug mode, except for <code>
- mod_ssl
- </code>
- ,which tends to be very noisy.
- </p>
-
-
-
- <h4><a name="Access Log" id="Access Log">Access Log
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>Apache httpd keeps track of every request it services in its
- access log file. In addition to the time and nature of a
- request, httpd can log the client IP address, date and time
- of the request, the result and a host of other information.
- The various logging format features are documented in the <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#loglevel">
- manual
- </a>
- .This file exists by default for the main server and can be
- configured per virtual host by using the <code>TransferLog
- </code>
- or <code>CustomLog
- </code>
- configuration directive.
- </p>
- <p>The access logs can be analyzed with any of several free and
- commercially available programs. Popular free analysis
- packages include Analog and Webalizer. Log analysis should
- be done offline so the web server machine is not burdened
- by processing the log files. Most log analysis packages
- understand the Common Log Format. The fields in the log
- lines are explained in in the following:

- <h4><a name="Rotating Log Files" id="Rotating Log Files">Rotating Log Files
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>There are several reasons to rotate logfiles. Even though
- almost no operating systems out there have a hard file size
- limit of two Gigabytes anymore, log files simply become too
- large to handle over time. Additionally, any periodic log
- file analysis should not be performed on files to which the
- server is actively writing. Periodic logfile rotation helps
- keep the analysis job manageable, and allows you to keep a
- closer eye on usage trends.
- </p>
- <p>On unix systems, you can simply rotate logfiles by giving
- the old file a new name using mv. The server will keep
- writing to the open file even though it has a new name.
- When you send a graceful restart signal to the server, it
- will open a new logfile with the configured name. For
- example, you could run a script from cron like this:
- </p>

- <div class="example"><p><code>
- APACHE=/usr/local/apache2<br />
- HTTPD=$APACHE/bin/httpd<br />
- mv $APACHE/logs/access_log
- $APACHE/logarchive/access_log-&#8216;date +%F&#8216;<br />
- $HTTPD -k graceful
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>This approach also works on Windows, just not as smoothly.
- While the httpd process on your Windows server will keep
- writing to the log file after it has been renamed, the
- Windows Service that runs Apache can not do a graceful
- restart. Restarting a Service on Windows means stopping it
- and then starting it again. The advantage of a graceful
- restart is that the httpd child processes get to complete
- responding to their current requests before they exit.
- Meanwhile, the httpd server becomes immediately available
- again to serve new requests. The stop-start that the
- Windows Service has to perform will interrupt any requests
- currently in progress, and the server is unavailable until
- it is started again. Plan for this when you decide the
- timing of your restarts.
- </p>
- <p>
- A second approach is to use piped logs. From the <code>
- CustomLog
- </code>
- ,<code>TransferLog
- </code>
- or <code>ErrorLog
- </code>
- directives you can send the log data into any program using
- a pipe character (<code>|
- </code>
- ). For instance:
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>CustomLog "|/usr/local/apache2/bin/rotatelogs
- /var/log/access_log 86400" common
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>The program on the other end of the pipe will receive the
- Apache log data on its stdin stream, and can do with this
- data whatever it wants. The rotatelogs program that comes
- with Apache seamlessly turns over the log file based on
- time elapsed or the amount of data written, and leaves the
- old log files with a timestamp suffix to its name. This
- method for rotating logfiles works well on unix platforms,
- but is currently broken on Windows.
- </p>

-
- <h4><a name="Logging and Performance" id="Logging and Performance">Logging and Performance
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>Writing entries to the Apache log files obviously takes some
- effort, but the information gathered from the logs is so
- valuable that under normal circumstances logging should not
- be turned off. For optimal performance, you should put your
- disk-based site content on a different physical disk than
- the server log files: the access patterns are very
- different. Retrieving content from disk is a read operation
- in a fairly random pattern, and log files are written to
- disk sequentially.
- </p>
- <p>
- Do not run a production server with your error <code>
- LogLevel
- </code>
- set to debug. This log level causes a vast amount of
- information to be written to the error log, including, in
- the case of SSL access, complete dumps of BIO read and
- write operations. The performance implications are
- significant: use the default warn level instead.
- </p>
- <p>If your server has more than one virtual host, you may give
- each virtual host a separate access logfile. This makes it
- easier to analyze the logfile later. However, if your
- server has many virtual hosts, all the open logfiles put a
- resource burden on your system, and it may be preferable to
- log to a single file. Use the <code>%v
- </code>
- format character at the start of your <a href="/httpd/LogFormat" class="nonexistent">
- LogFormat
- </a>
- and starting 2.3.8 of your <code>ErrorLogFormat
- </code>
- to make httpd print the hostname of the virtual host that
- received the request or the error at the beginning of each
- log line. A simple Perl script can split out the log file
- after it rotates: one is included with the Apache source
- under <code>support/split-logfile
- </code>
- .
- </p>
- <p>
- You can use the <code>BufferedLogs
- </code>
- directive to have Apache collect several log lines in
- memory before writing them to disk. This might yield better
- performance, but could affect the order in which the
- server's log is written.

- <h3><a name="Generating A Test Load" id="Generating A Test Load">Generating A Test Load
- </a></h3>
-
- <p>It is useful to generate a test load to monitor system
- performance under realistic operating circumstances. Besides
- commercial packages such as <a href="/httpd/LoadRunner" class="nonexistent">
- LoadRunner
- </a>
- ,there are a number of freely available tools to generate a
- test load against your web server.
- </p>
- <ul>
- <li>Apache ships with a test program called ab, short for
- Apache Bench. It can generate a web server load by
- repeatedly asking for the same file in rapid succession.
- You can specify a number of concurrent connections and have
- the program run for either a given amount of time or a
- specified number of requests.
- </li>
- <li>Another freely available load generator is http load11 .
- This program works with a URL file and can be compiled with
- SSL support.
- </li>
- <li>The Apache Software Foundation offers a tool named flood12
- . Flood is a fairly sophisticated program that is
- configured through an XML file.
- </li>
- <li>Finally, JMeter13 , a Jakarta subproject, is an all-Java
- load-testing tool. While early versions of this application
- were slow and difficult to use, the current version 2.1.1
- seems to be versatile and useful.
- </li>
- <li>
- <p>ASF external projects, that have proven to be quite
- good: grinder, httperf, tsung, <a href="/httpd/FunkLoad" class="nonexistent">
- FunkLoad
- </a>
- </p>
- </li>
- </ul>
- <p>When you load-test your web server, please keep in mind that if
- that server is in production, the test load may negatively
- affect the server&#8217;s response. Also, any data traffic you
- generate may be charged against your monthly traffic allowance.

-<h2><a name="Configuring for Performance" id="Configuring for Performance">Configuring for Performance
- </a></h2>
-
-
-
- <h3><a name="Apache Configuration" id="Apache Configuration">Apache Configuration
- </a></h3>
-
- <p>The Apache 2.2 httpd is by default a pre-forking web server.
- When the server starts, the parent process spawns a number of
- child processes that do the actual work of servicing requests.
- But Apache httpd 2.0 introduced the concept of the
- Multi-Processing Module (MPM). Developers can write MPMs to
- suit the process- or threadingarchitecture of their specific
- operating system. Apache 2 comes with special MPMs for Windows,
- OS/2, Netware and BeOS. On unix-like platforms, the two most
- popular MPMs are Prefork and Worker. The Prefork MPM offers the
- same pre-forking process model that Apache 1.3 uses. The Worker
- MPM runs a smaller number of child processes, and spawns
- multiple request handling threads within each child process. In
- 2.3+ MPMs are no longer hard-wired. They too can be exchanged
- via <a href="/httpd/LoadModule" class="nonexistent">LoadModule
- </a>
- .The default MPM in 2.3 is the event MPM.
- </p>
- <p>The maximum number of workers, be they pre-forked child
- processes or threads within a process, is an indication of how
- many requests your server can manage concurrently. It is merely
- a rough estimate because the kernel can queue connection
- attempts for your web server. When your site becomes busy and
- the maximum number of workers is running, the machine
- doesn't hit a hard limit beyond which clients will be
- denied access. However, once requests start backing up, system
- performance is likely to degrade.
- </p>
-
-
- <h4><a name="MaxClients" id="MaxClients">MaxClients
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>
- The <code>MaxClients
- </code>
- directive in your Apache httpd configuration file specifies
- the maximum number of workers your server can create. It
- has two related directives, <code>MinSpareServers
- </code>
- and <code>MaxSpareServers
- </code>
- ,which specify the number of workers Apache keeps waiting
- in the wings ready to serve requests. The absolute maximum
- number of processes is configurable through the <code>
- ServerLimit
- </code>
- directive.
- </p>
-
-
-
- <h4><a name="Spinning Threads" id="Spinning Threads">Spinning Threads
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>For the prefork MPM of the above directives are all there is
- to determining the process limit. However, if you are
- running a threaded MPM the situation is a little more
- complicated. Threaded MPMs support the <code>
- ThreadsPerChild
- </code>
- directive1 . Apache requires that <code>MaxClients
- </code>
- is evenly divisible by <code>ThreadsPerChild
- </code>
- .If you set either directive to a number that doesn&#8217;t
- meet this requirement, Apache will send a message of
- complaint to the error log and adjust the <code>
- ThreadsPerChild
- </code>
- value downwards until it is an even factor of <code>
- MaxClients
- </code>
- .
- </p>
-
-
-
- <h4><a name="Sizing MaxClients" id="Sizing MaxClients">Sizing MaxClients
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>Optimally, the maximum number of processes should be set so
- that all the memory on your system is used, but no more. If
- your system gets so overloaded that it needs to heavily
- swap core memory out to disk, performance will degrade
- quickly. The formula for determining <code>MaxClients
- </code>
- is fairly simple:
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>
- total RAM &#8722; RAM for OS &#8722; RAM for external programs<br />
- MaxClients =
- -------------------------------------------------------<br />
- RAM per httpd process
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>The various amounts of memory allocated for the OS, external
- programs and the httpd processes is best determined by
- observation: use the top and free commands described above
- to determine the memory footprint of the OS without the web
- server running. You can also determine the footprint of a
- typical web server process from top: most top
- implementations have a Resident Size (RSS) column and a
- Shared Memory column.
- </p>
- <p>The difference between these two is the amount of memory
- per-process. The shared segment really exists only once and
- is used for the code and libraries loaded and the dynamic
- inter-process tally, or 'scoreboard,' that Apache
- keeps. How much memory each process takes for itself
- depends heavily on the number and kind of modules you use.
- The best approach to use in determining this need is to
- generate a typical test load against your web site and see
- how large the httpd processes become.
- </p>
- <p>The RAM for external programs parameter is intended mostly
- for CGI programs and scripts that run outside the web
- server process. However, if you have a Java virtual machine
- running Tomcat on the same box it will need a significant
- amount of memory as well. The above assessment should give
- you an idea how far you can push <code>MaxClients
- </code>
- ,but it is not an exact science. When in doubt, be
- conservative and use a low <code>MaxClients
- </code>
- value. The Linux kernel will put extra memory to good use
- for caching disk access. On Solaris you need enough
- available real RAM memory to create any process. If no real
- memory is available, httpd will start writing &#8216;No space
- left on device&#8217; messages to the error log and be unable
- to fork additional child processes, so a higher <code>
- MaxClients
- </code>
- value may actually be a disadvantage.
- </p>
-
-
-
- <h4><a name="Selecting your MPM" id="Selecting your MPM">Selecting your MPM
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>The prime reason for selecting a threaded MPM is that
- threads consume fewer system resources than processes, and
- it takes less effort for the system to switch between
- threads. This is more true for some operating systems than
- for others. On systems like Solaris and AIX, manipulating
- processes is relatively expensive in terms of system
- resources. On these systems, running a threaded MPM makes
- sense. On Linux, the threading implementation actually uses
- one process for each thread. Linux processes are relatively
- lightweight, but it means that a threaded MPM offers less
- of a performance advantage than in other environments.
- </p>
- <p>Running a threaded MPM can cause stability problems in some
- situations For instance, should a child process of a
- preforked MPM crash, at most one client connection is
- affected. However, if a threaded child crashes, all the
- threads in that process disappear, which means all the
- clients currently being served by that process will see
- their connection aborted. Additionally, there may be
- so-called "thread-safety" issues, especially with
- third-party libraries. In threaded applications, threads
- may access the same variables indiscriminately, not knowing
- whether a variable may have been changed by another thread.
- </p>
- <p>This has been a sore point within the PHP community. The PHP
- processor heavily relies on third-party libraries and
- cannot guarantee that all of these are thread-safe. The
- good news is that if you are running Apache on Linux, you
- can run PHP in the preforked MPM without fear of losing too
- much performance relative to the threaded option.
- </p>

-
- <h4><a name="Spinning Locks" id="Spinning Locks">Spinning Locks
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>Apache httpd maintains an inter-process lock around its
- network listener. For all practical purposes, this means
- that only one httpd child process can receive a request at
- any given time. The other processes are either servicing
- requests already received or are 'camping out' on
- the lock, waiting for the network listener to become
- available. This process is best visualized as a revolving
- door, with only one process allowed in the door at any
- time. On a heavily loaded web server with requests arriving
- constantly, the door spins quickly and requests are
- accepted at a steady rate. On a lightly loaded web server,
- the process that currently "holds" the lock may
- have to stay in the door for a while, during which all the
- other processes sit idle, waiting to acquire the lock. At
- this time, the parent process may decide to terminate some
- children based on its <code>MaxSpareServers
- </code>
- directive.
- </p>
-
-
-
- <h4><a name="The Thundering Herd" id="The Thundering Herd">The Thundering Herd
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>The function of the 'accept mutex' (as this
- inter-process lock is called) is to keep request reception
- moving along in an orderly fashion. If the lock is absent,
- the server may exhibit the Thundering Herd syndrome.
- </p>
- <p>Consider an American Football team poised on the line of
- scrimmage. If the football players were Apache processes
- all team members would go for the ball simultaneously at
- the snap. One process would get it, and all the others
- would have to lumber back to the line for the next snap. In
- this metaphor, the accept mutex acts as the quarterback,
- delivering the connection "ball" to the
- appropriate player process.
- </p>
- <p>Moving this much information around is obviously a lot of
- work, and, like a smart person, a smart web server tries to
- avoid it whenever possible. Hence the revolving door
- construction. In recent years, many operating systems,
- including Linux and Solaris, have put code in place to
- prevent the Thundering Herd syndrome. Apache recognizes
- this and if you run with just one network listener, meaning
- one virtual host or just the main server, Apache will
- refrain from using an accept mutex. If you run with
- multiple listeners (for instance because you have a virtual
- host serving SSL requests), it will activate the accept
- mutex to avoid internal conflicts.
- </p>
- <p>
- You can manipulate the accept mutex with the <code>
- AcceptMutex
- </code>
- directive. Besides turning the accept mutex off, you can
- select the locking mechanism. Common locking mechanisms
- include fcntl, System V Semaphores and pthread locking. Not
- all are available on every platform, and their availability
- also depends on compile-time settings. The various locking
- mechanisms may place specific demands on system resources:
- manipulate them with care.
- </p>
- <p>There is no compelling reason to disable the accept mutex.
- Apache automatically recognizes the single listener
- situation described above and knows if it is safe to run
- without mutex on your platform.

- </a></h3>
-
- <p>People often look for the 'magic tune-up' that will
- make their system perform four times as fast by tweaking just
- one little setting. The truth is, present-day UNIX derivatives
- are pretty well adjusted straight out of the box and there is
- not a lot that needs to be done to make them perform optimally.
- However, there are a few things that an administrator can do to
- improve performance.
- </p>
-
-
- <h4><a name="RAM and Swap Space" id="RAM and Swap Space">RAM and Swap Space
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>The usual mantra regarding RAM is "more is
- better". As discussed above, unused RAM is put to good
- use as file system cache. The Apache processes get bigger
- if you load more modules, especially if you use modules
- that generate dynamic page content within the processes,
- like PHP and mod_perl. A large configuration file-with many
- virtual hosts-also tends to inflate the process footprint.
- Having ample RAM allows you to run Apache with more child
- processes, which allows the server to process more
- concurrent requests.
- </p>
- <p>While the various platforms treat their virtual memory in
- different ways, it is never a good idea to run with less
- disk-based swap space than RAM. The virtual memory system
- is designed to provide a fallback for RAM, but when you
- don't have disk space available and run out of
- swappable memory, your machine grinds to a halt. This can
- crash your box, requiring a physical reboot for which your
- hosting facility may charge you.
- </p>
- <p>Also, such an outage naturally occurs when you least want
- it: when the world has found your website and is beating a
- path to your door. If you have enough disk-based swap space
- available and the machine gets overloaded, it may get very,
- very slow as the system needs to swap memory pages to disk
- and back, but when the load decreases the system should
- recover. Remember, you still have <code>MaxClients
- </code>
- to keep things in hand.
- </p>
- <p>Most unix-like operating systems use designated disk
- partitions for swap space. When a system starts up it finds
- all swap partitions on the disk(s), by partition type or
- because they are listed in the file <code>/etc/fstab
- </code>
- ,and automatically enables them. When adding a disk or
- installing the operating system, be sure to allocate enough
- swap space to accommodate eventual RAM upgrades.
- Reassigning disk space on a running system is a cumbersome
- process.
- </p>
- <p>Plan for available hard drive swap space of at least twice
- your amount of RAM, perhaps up to four times in situations
- with frequent peaking loads. Remember to adjust this
- configuration whenever you upgrade RAM on your system. In a
- pinch, you can use a regular file as swap space. For
- instructions on how to do this, see the manual pages for
- the <code>mkswap
- </code>
- and <code>swapon
- </code>
- or <code>swap
- </code>
- programs.

- <h4><a name="ulimit: Files and Processes" id="ulimit: Files and Processes">ulimit: Files and Processes
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>Given a machine with plenty of RAM and processor capacity,
- you can run hundreds of Apache processes if necessary. . .
- and if your kernel allows it.
- </p>
- <p>Consider a situation in which several hundred web servers
- are running; if some of these need to spawn CGI processes,
- the maximum number of processes would occur quickly.
- </p>
- <p>However, you can change this limit with the command
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>
- ulimit [-H|-S] -u [newvalue]
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>This must be changed before starting the server, since the
- new value will only be available to the current shell and
- programs started from it. In newer Linux kernels the
- default has been raised to 2048. On FreeBSD, the number
- seems to be the rather unusual 513. In the default user
- shell on this system, <code>csh
- </code>
- the equivalent is <code>limit
- </code>
- and works analogous the the Bourne-like <code>ulimit
- </code>
- :
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>
- limit [-h] maxproc [newvalue]
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>Similarly, the kernel may limit the number of open files per
- process. This is generally not a problem for pre-forked
- servers, which just handle one request at a time per
- process. Threaded servers, however, serve many requests per
- process and much more easily run out of available file
- descriptors. You can increase the maximum number of open
- files per process by running the
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>ulimit -n [newvalue]
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>command. Once again, this must be done prior to starting
- Apache.

-
-
-
- <h4><a name="Setting User Limits on System Startup" id="Setting User Limits on System Startup">Setting User Limits on System Startup
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>Under Linux, you can set the ulimit parameters on bootup by
- editing the <code>/etc/security/limits.conf
- </code>
- file. This file allows you to set soft and hard limits on a
- per-user or per-group basis; the file contains commentary
- explaining the options. To enable this, make sure that the
- file <code>/etc/pam.d/login
- </code>
- contains the line
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>All items can have a 'soft' and a 'hard'
- limit: the first is the default setting and the second the
- maximum value for that item.
- </p>
- <p>
- In FreeBSD's <code>/etc/login.conf
- </code>
- these resources can be limited or extended system wide,
- analogously to <code>limits.conf
- </code>
- .'Soft' limits can be specified with <code>-cur
- </code>
- and 'hard' limits with <code>-max
- </code>
- .
- </p>
- <p>Solaris has a similar mechanism for manipulating limit
- values at boot time: In <code>/etc/system
- </code>
- you can set kernel tunables valid for the entire system at
- boot time. These are the same tunables that can be set with
- the <code>mdb
- </code>
- kernel debugger during run time. The soft and hard limit
- corresponding to ulimit -u can be set via:
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>
- set rlim_fd_max=65536<br />
- set rlim_fd_cur=2048
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>Solaris calculates the maximum number of allowed processes
- per user (<code>maxuprc
- </code>
- )based on the total amount available memory on the system (<code>
- maxusers
- </code>
- ). You can review the numbers with
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>sysdef -i | grep maximum
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>but it is not recommended to change them.

- <h4><a name="Turn Off Unused Services and Modules" id="Turn Off Unused Services and Modules">Turn Off Unused Services and Modules
- </a></h4>
-
- <p>Many UNIX and Linux distributions come with a slew of
- services turned on by default. You probably need few of
- them. For example, your web server does not need to be
- running sendmail, nor is it likely to be an NFS server,
- etc. Turn them off.
- </p>
- <p>On Red Hat Linux, the chkconfig tool will help you do this
- from the command line. On Solaris systems <code>svcs
- </code>
- and <code>svcadm
- </code>
- will show which services are enabled and disable them
- respectively.
- </p>
- <p>In a similar fashion, cast a critical eye on the Apache
- modules you load. Most binary distributions of Apache
- httpd, and pre-installed versions that come with Linux
- distributions, have their modules enabled through the <code>
- LoadModule
- </code>
- directive.
- </p>
- <p>Unused modules may be culled: if you don't rely on
- their functionality and configuration directives, you can
- turn them off by commenting out the corresponding <code>
- LoadModule
- </code>
- lines. Read the documentation on each module&#8217;s
- functionality before deciding whether to keep it enabled.
- While the performance overhead of an unused module is
- small, it's also unnecessary.

-<h2><a name="Caching Content" id="Caching Content">Caching Content

-
- <p>Requests for dynamically generated content usually take
- significantly more resources than requests for static content.
- Static content consists of simple filespages, images, etc.-on disk
- that are very efficiently served. Many operating systems also
- automatically cache the contents of frequently accessed files in
- memory.
- </p>
- <p>Processing dynamic requests, on the contrary, can be much more
- involved. Running CGI scripts, handing off requests to an external
- application server and accessing database content can introduce
- significant latency and processing load to a busy web server. Under
- many circumstances, performance can be improved by turning popular
- dynamic requests into static requests. In this section, two
- approaches to this will be discussed.
- </p>
-
-
- <h3><a name="Making Popular Pages Static" id="Making Popular Pages Static">Making Popular Pages Static
- </a></h3>
-
- <p>By pre-rendering the response pages for the most popular queries
- in your application, you can gain a significant performance
- improvement without giving up the flexibility of dynamically
- generated content. For instance, if your application is a
- flower delivery service, you would probably want to pre-render
- your catalog pages for red roses during the weeks leading up to
- Valentine's Day. When the user searches for red roses,
- they are served the pre-rendered page. Queries for, say, yellow
- roses will be generated directly from the database. The
- mod_rewrite module included with Apache is a great tool to
- implement these substitutions.

- </p>
- <p>Blosxom is a lightweight web log package that runs as a CGI.
- It is written in Perl and uses plain text files for entry
- input. Besides running as CGI, Blosxom can be run from the
- command line to pre-render blog pages. Pre-rendering pages
- to static HTML can yield a significant performance boost in
- the event that large numbers of people actually start
- reading your blog.
- </p>
- <p>To run blosxom for static page generation, edit the CGI
- script according to the documentation. Set the $static dir
- variable to the <code>DocumentRoot
- </code>
- of the web server, and run the script from the command line
- as follows:
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>$ perl blosxom.cgi -password='whateveryourpassword'
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>This can be run periodically from Cron, after you upload
- content, etc. To make Apache substitute the statically
- rendered pages for the dynamic content, we&#8217;ll use
- mod_rewrite. This module is included with the Apache source

- the server by passing the option <code>

- The <code>RewriteCond
- </code>
- and <code>RewriteRule
- </code>
- directives say that, if the requested resource does not
- exist as a file or a directory, its path is passed to the
- Blosxom CGI for rendering. Blosxom uses Path Info to
- specify blog entries and index pages, so this means that if
- a particular path under Blosxom exists as a static file in
- the file system, the file is served instead. Any request
- that isn't pre- rendered is served by the CGI. This
- means that individual entries, which show the comments, are
- always served by the CGI which in turn means that your
- comment spam is always visible. This configuration also
- hides the Blosxom CGI from the user-visible URL in their
- Location bar. mod_rewrite is a fantastically powerful and
- versatile module: investigate it to arrive at a
- configuration that is best for your situation.

- <h3><a name="Caching Content With mod_cache" id="Caching Content With mod_cache">Caching Content With mod_cache
- </a></h3>
-
- <p>The mod_cache module provides intelligent caching of HTTP
- responses: it is aware of the expiration timing and content
- requirements that are part of the HTTP specification. The
- mod_cache module caches URL response content. If content sent
- to the client is considered cacheable, it is saved to disk.
- Subsequent requests for that URL will be served directly from
- the cache. The provider module for mod_cache, mod_disk_cache,
- determines how the cached content is stored on disk. Most
- server systems will have more disk available than memory, and
- it's good to note that some operating system kernels cache
- frequently accessed disk content transparently in memory, so
- replicating this in the server is not very useful.
- </p>
- <p>To enable efficient content caching and avoid presenting the
- user with stale or invalid content, the application that
- generates the actual content has to send the correct response
- headers. Without headers like <code>Etag:
- </code>
- ,<code>Last-Modified:
- </code>
- or <code>Expires:
- </code>
- ,mod_cache can not make the right decision on whether to cache
- the content, serve it from cache or leave it alone. When
- testing content caching, you may find that you need to modify
- your application or, if this is impossible, selectively disable
- caching for URLs that cause problems. The mod_cache modules are
- not compiled by default, but can be enabled by passing the
- option <code>--enable-cache[=shared]
- </code>
- to the configure script. If you use a binary distribution of
- Apache httpd, or it came with your port or package collection,
- it may have mod_cache already included.

- The Apache Software Foundation Wiki is served by <a href="/httpd/MoinMoin">
- MoinMoin
- </a>
- .<a href="/httpd/MoinMoin">MoinMoin
- </a>
- is written in Python and runs as a CGI. To date, any
- attempts to run it under mod_python has been unsuccessful.
- The CGI proved to place an untenably high load on the
- server machine, especially when the Wiki was being indexed
- by search engines like Google. To lighten the load on the
- server machine, the Apache Infrastructure team turned to
- mod_cache. It turned out <a href="/httpd/MoinMoin">MoinMoin
- </a>
- needed a small patch to ensure proper behavior behind the
- caching server: certain requests can never be cached and
- the corresponding Python modules were patched to send the
- proper HTTP response headers. After this modification, the
- cache in front of the Wiki was enabled with the following
- configuration snippet in <code>httpd.conf
- </code>
- :
- </p>
-
- <div class="example"><p><code>
- CacheRoot /raid1/cacheroot<br />
- CacheEnable disk /<br />
- # A page modified 100 minutes ago will expire in 10 minutes<br />
- CacheLastModifiedFactor .1<br />
- # Always check again after 6 hours<br />
- CacheMaxExpire 21600
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>This configuration will try to cache any and all content
- within its virtual host. It will never cache content for
- more than six hours (the <code>CacheMaxExpire
- </code>
- directive). If no <code>Expires:
- </code>
- header is present in the response, mod_cache will compute
- an expiration period from the <code>Last-Modified:
- </code>
- header. The computation using <code>CacheLastModifiedFactor
- </code>
- is based on the assumption that if a page was recently
- modified, it is likely to change again in the near future
- and will have to be re-cached.
- </p>
- <p>
- Do note that it can pay off to <em>disable
- </em>
- the <code>ETag:
- </code>
- header: For files smaller than 1k the server has to
- calculate the checksum (usually MD5) and then send out a <code>
- 304 Not Modified
- </code>
- response, which will take waste some CPU and still saturate
- the same amount of network resources for the transfer (one
- TCP packet). For resources larger than 1k it might prove
- CPU expensive to calculate the header for each request.
- Unfortunately there does currently not exist a way to cache
- these headers.
- </p>
- <div class="example"><p><code>
- &lt;FilesMatch \.(jpe?g|png|gif|js|css|x?html|xml)&gt;<br />
- <span class="indent">
- FilesETag None<br />
- </span>
- &lt;/FilesMatch&gt;
- </code></p></div>
-
- <p>
- This will disable the generation of the <code>ETag:
- </code>
- header for most static resources. The server does not
- calculate these headers for dynamic resources.

+ <p>The Performance Tuning page in the Apache 1.3 documentation says:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>&#8220;Apache is a general webserver, which is designed to be
+ correct first, and fast
+ second. Even so, its performance is quite satisfactory. Most
+ sites have less than 10Mbits of outgoing bandwidth, which
+ Apache can fill using only a low end Pentium-based
+ webserver.&#8221;
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>However, this sentence was written a few years ago, and in the
+ meantime several things have happened. On one hand, web server
+ hardware has become much faster. On the other hand, many sites now
+ are allowed much more than ten megabits per second of outgoing
+ bandwidth. In addition, web applications have become more complex.
+ The classic brochureware site is alive and well, but the web has
+ grown up substantially as a computing application platform and
+ webmasters may find themselves running dynamic content in Perl, PHP
+ or Java, all of which take a toll on performance.
+ </p>
+ <p>Therefore, in spite of strides forward in machine speed and
+ bandwidth allowances, web server performance and web application
+ performance remain areas of concern. In this documentation several
+ aspects of web server performance will be discussed.

+ <p>The top tool ships with Linux and FreeBSD. Solaris offers
+ `prstat'. It collects a number of statistics for the

+ interactively on your terminal. The data displayed is
+ refreshed every second and varies by platform, but
+ typically includes system load average, number of processes
+ and their current states, the percent CPU(s) time spent
+ executing user and system code, and the state of the
+ virtual memory system. The data displayed for each process
+ is typically configurable and includes its process name and
+ ID, priority and nice values, memory footprint, and
+ percentage CPU usage. The following example shows multiple

+ <p>Top is a wonderful tool even though it&#8217;s slightly resource
+ intensive (when running, its own process is usually in the
+ top ten CPU gluttons). It is indispensable in determining
+ the size of a running process, which comes in handy when
+ determining how many server processes you can run on your
+ machine. How to do this is described in '<a href="/httpd/PerformanceScalingUp#S">

+
+ <p>This command is only available on Linux. It shows how much

+ both with and without this cache. The free command can be
+ used to find out how much memory the operating system is

+ causes the information to reappear every five seconds.
+ Vmstat displays the amount of virtual memory in use, how

+
+ <p>The SE Toolkit is a system monitoring toolkit for Solaris.
+ Its programming language is based on the C preprocessor and
+ comes with a number of sample scripts. It can use both the
+ command line and the GUI to display information. It can
+ also be programmed to apply rules to the system data. The
+ example script shown in Figure 2, Zoom.se, shows green,
+ orange or red indicators when utilization of various parts
+ of the system rises above certain thresholds. Another
+ included script, Virtual Adrian, applies performance tuning
+ metrics according to.
+ </p>
+ <p>The SE Toolkit has drifted around for a while and has had
+ several owners since its inception. It seems that it has
+ now found a final home at Sunfreeware.com, where it can be
+ downloaded at no charge. There is a single package for
+ Solaris 8, 9 and 10 on SPARC and x86, and includes source
+ code. SE Toolkit author Richard Pettit has started a new
+ company, Captive Metrics4 that plans to bring to market a
+ multiplatform monitoring tool built on the same principles
+ as SE Toolkit, written in Java.

+
+
+ <h4><a name="mod_status" id="mod_status">mod_status
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>The mod_status module gives an overview of the server
+ performance at a given moment. It generates an HTML page
+ with, among others, the number of Apache processes running
+ and how many bytes each has served, and the CPU load caused
+ by httpd and the rest of the system. The Apache Software
+ Foundation uses mod_status on its own <a href="http://apache.org/server-status">
+ web site
+ </a>
+ .If you put the <code>ExtendedStatus On
+ </code>
+ directive in your <code>httpd.conf
+ </code>
+ ,the <code>mod_status
+ </code>
+ page will give you more information at the cost of a little
+ extra work per request.

+ <h3><a name="Web Server Log Files" id="Web Server Log Files">Web Server Log Files
+ </a></h3>
+
+ <p>Monitoring and analyzing the log files httpd writes is one of
+ the most effective ways to keep track of your server health and
+ performance. Monitoring the error log allows you to detect
+ error conditions, discover attacks and find performance issues.
+ Analyzing the access logs tells you how busy your server is,
+ which resources are the most popular and where your users come
+ from. Historical log file data can give you invaluable insight
+ into trends in access to your server, which allows you to
+ predict when your performance needs will overtake your server
+ capacity.
+ </p>
+
+
+ <h4><a name="Error Log" id="Error Log">Error Log
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>The error log will contain messages if the server has
+ reached the maximum number of active processes or the
+ maximum number of concurrently open files. The error log
+ also reflects when processes are being spawned at a
+ higher-than-usual rate in response to a sudden increase in
+ load. When the server starts, the stderr file descriptor is
+ redirected to the error logfile, so any error encountered
+ by httpd after it opens its logfiles will appear in this
+ log. This makes it good practice to review the error log
+ frequently.
+ </p>
+ <p>Before Apache httpd opens its logfiles, any errors will be
+ written to the stderr stream. If you start httpd manually,
+ this error information will appear on your terminal and you
+ can use it directly to troubleshoot your server. If your
+ httpd is started by a startup script, the destination of
+ early error messages depends on their design. The <code>
+ /var/log/messages
+ </code>
+ file is usually a good bet. On Windows, early error
+ messages are written to the Applications Event Log, which
+ can be viewed through the Event Viewer in Administrative
+ Tools.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The Error Log is configured through the <code>ErrorLog
+ </code>
+ and <code>LogLevel
+ </code>
+ configuration directives. The error log of httpd&#8217;s main
+ server configuration receives the log messages that pertain
+ to the entire server: startup, shutdown, crashes, excessive
+ process spawns, etc. The <code>ErrorLog
+ </code>
+ directive can also be used in virtual host containers. The
+ error log of a virtual host receives only log messages
+ specific to that virtual host, such as authentication
+ failures and 'File not Found' errors.
+ </p>
+ <p>On a server that is visible to the Internet, expect to see a
+ lot of exploit attempt and worm attacks in the error log. A
+ lot of these will be targeted at other server platforms
+ instead of Apache, but the current state of affairs is that
+ attack scripts just throw everything they have at any open
+ port, regardless of which server is actually running or
+ what applications might be installed. You could block these
+ attempts using a firewall or <a href="http://www.modsecurity.org/">
+ mod_security
+ </a>
+ ,but this falls outside the scope of this discussion.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The <code>LogLevel
+ </code>
+ directive determines the level of detail included in the
+ logs. There are eight log levels as described here:
+ </p>
+ <table>
+ <tr>
+ <td>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Level
+ </strong>
+ </p>
+ </td>
+ <td>
+ <p>

+ </p>
+ </td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ <p>The default log level is warn. A production server should
+ not be run on debug, but increasing the level of detail in
+ the error log can be useful during troubleshooting.
+ Starting with 2.3.8 <code>LogLevel
+ </code>
+ can be specified on a per module basis:
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ LogLevel debug mod_ssl:warn
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>
+ This puts all of the server in debug mode, except for <code>
+ mod_ssl
+ </code>
+ ,which tends to be very noisy.
+ </p>
+
+
+
+ <h4><a name="Access Log" id="Access Log">Access Log
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>Apache httpd keeps track of every request it services in its
+ access log file. In addition to the time and nature of a
+ request, httpd can log the client IP address, date and time
+ of the request, the result and a host of other information.
+ The various logging format features are documented in the <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#loglevel">
+ manual
+ </a>
+ .This file exists by default for the main server and can be
+ configured per virtual host by using the <code>TransferLog
+ </code>
+ or <code>CustomLog
+ </code>
+ configuration directive.
+ </p>
+ <p>The access logs can be analyzed with any of several free and
+ commercially available programs. Popular free analysis
+ packages include Analog and Webalizer. Log analysis should
+ be done offline so the web server machine is not burdened
+ by processing the log files. Most log analysis packages
+ understand the Common Log Format. The fields in the log
+ lines are explained in in the following:

+ <h4><a name="Rotating Log Files" id="Rotating Log Files">Rotating Log Files
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>There are several reasons to rotate logfiles. Even though
+ almost no operating systems out there have a hard file size
+ limit of two Gigabytes anymore, log files simply become too
+ large to handle over time. Additionally, any periodic log
+ file analysis should not be performed on files to which the
+ server is actively writing. Periodic logfile rotation helps
+ keep the analysis job manageable, and allows you to keep a
+ closer eye on usage trends.
+ </p>
+ <p>On unix systems, you can simply rotate logfiles by giving
+ the old file a new name using mv. The server will keep
+ writing to the open file even though it has a new name.
+ When you send a graceful restart signal to the server, it
+ will open a new logfile with the configured name. For
+ example, you could run a script from cron like this:
+ </p>
+
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ APACHE=/usr/local/apache2<br />
+ HTTPD=$APACHE/bin/httpd<br />
+ mv $APACHE/logs/access_log
+ $APACHE/logarchive/access_log-&#8216;date +%F&#8216;<br />
+ $HTTPD -k graceful
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>This approach also works on Windows, just not as smoothly.
+ While the httpd process on your Windows server will keep
+ writing to the log file after it has been renamed, the
+ Windows Service that runs Apache can not do a graceful
+ restart. Restarting a Service on Windows means stopping it
+ and then starting it again. The advantage of a graceful
+ restart is that the httpd child processes get to complete
+ responding to their current requests before they exit.
+ Meanwhile, the httpd server becomes immediately available
+ again to serve new requests. The stop-start that the
+ Windows Service has to perform will interrupt any requests
+ currently in progress, and the server is unavailable until
+ it is started again. Plan for this when you decide the
+ timing of your restarts.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ A second approach is to use piped logs. From the <code>
+ CustomLog
+ </code>
+ ,<code>TransferLog
+ </code>
+ or <code>ErrorLog
+ </code>
+ directives you can send the log data into any program using
+ a pipe character (<code>|
+ </code>
+ ). For instance:
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>CustomLog "|/usr/local/apache2/bin/rotatelogs
+ /var/log/access_log 86400" common
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>The program on the other end of the pipe will receive the
+ Apache log data on its stdin stream, and can do with this
+ data whatever it wants. The rotatelogs program that comes
+ with Apache seamlessly turns over the log file based on
+ time elapsed or the amount of data written, and leaves the
+ old log files with a timestamp suffix to its name. This
+ method for rotating logfiles works well on unix platforms,
+ but is currently broken on Windows.
+ </p>
+
+
+
+ <h4><a name="Logging and Performance" id="Logging and Performance">Logging and Performance
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>Writing entries to the Apache log files obviously takes some
+ effort, but the information gathered from the logs is so
+ valuable that under normal circumstances logging should not
+ be turned off. For optimal performance, you should put your
+ disk-based site content on a different physical disk than
+ the server log files: the access patterns are very
+ different. Retrieving content from disk is a read operation
+ in a fairly random pattern, and log files are written to
+ disk sequentially.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Do not run a production server with your error <code>
+ LogLevel
+ </code>
+ set to debug. This log level causes a vast amount of
+ information to be written to the error log, including, in
+ the case of SSL access, complete dumps of BIO read and
+ write operations. The performance implications are
+ significant: use the default warn level instead.
+ </p>
+ <p>If your server has more than one virtual host, you may give
+ each virtual host a separate access logfile. This makes it
+ easier to analyze the logfile later. However, if your
+ server has many virtual hosts, all the open logfiles put a
+ resource burden on your system, and it may be preferable to
+ log to a single file. Use the <code>%v
+ </code>
+ format character at the start of your <a href="/httpd/LogFormat" class="nonexistent">
+ LogFormat
+ </a>
+ and starting 2.3.8 of your <code>ErrorLogFormat
+ </code>
+ to make httpd print the hostname of the virtual host that
+ received the request or the error at the beginning of each
+ log line. A simple Perl script can split out the log file
+ after it rotates: one is included with the Apache source
+ under <code>support/split-logfile
+ </code>
+ .
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ You can use the <code>BufferedLogs
+ </code>
+ directive to have Apache collect several log lines in
+ memory before writing them to disk. This might yield better
+ performance, but could affect the order in which the
+ server's log is written.
+ </p>

+ <h3><a name="Generating A Test Load" id="Generating A Test Load">Generating A Test Load
+ </a></h3>
+
+ <p>It is useful to generate a test load to monitor system
+ performance under realistic operating circumstances. Besides
+ commercial packages such as <a href="/httpd/LoadRunner" class="nonexistent">
+ LoadRunner
+ </a>
+ ,there are a number of freely available tools to generate a
+ test load against your web server.
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>Apache ships with a test program called ab, short for
+ Apache Bench. It can generate a web server load by
+ repeatedly asking for the same file in rapid succession.
+ You can specify a number of concurrent connections and have
+ the program run for either a given amount of time or a
+ specified number of requests.
+ </li>
+ <li>Another freely available load generator is http load11 .
+ This program works with a URL file and can be compiled with
+ SSL support.
+ </li>
+ <li>The Apache Software Foundation offers a tool named flood12
+ . Flood is a fairly sophisticated program that is
+ configured through an XML file.
+ </li>
+ <li>Finally, JMeter13 , a Jakarta subproject, is an all-Java
+ load-testing tool. While early versions of this application
+ were slow and difficult to use, the current version 2.1.1
+ seems to be versatile and useful.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p>ASF external projects, that have proven to be quite
+ good: grinder, httperf, tsung, <a href="/httpd/FunkLoad" class="nonexistent">
+ FunkLoad
+ </a>
+ </p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>When you load-test your web server, please keep in mind that if
+ that server is in production, the test load may negatively
+ affect the server&#8217;s response. Also, any data traffic you
+ generate may be charged against your monthly traffic allowance.

+ </a></h2>
+
+
+
+ <h3><a name="Apache Configuration" id="Apache Configuration">Apache Configuration
+ </a></h3>
+
+ <p>The Apache 2.2 httpd is by default a pre-forking web server.
+ When the server starts, the parent process spawns a number of
+ child processes that do the actual work of servicing requests.
+ But Apache httpd 2.0 introduced the concept of the
+ Multi-Processing Module (MPM). Developers can write MPMs to
+ suit the process- or threadingarchitecture of their specific
+ operating system. Apache 2 comes with special MPMs for Windows,
+ OS/2, Netware and BeOS. On unix-like platforms, the two most
+ popular MPMs are Prefork and Worker. The Prefork MPM offers the
+ same pre-forking process model that Apache 1.3 uses. The Worker
+ MPM runs a smaller number of child processes, and spawns
+ multiple request handling threads within each child process. In
+ 2.3+ MPMs are no longer hard-wired. They too can be exchanged
+ via <a href="/httpd/LoadModule" class="nonexistent">LoadModule
+ </a>
+ .The default MPM in 2.3 is the event MPM.
+ </p>
+ <p>The maximum number of workers, be they pre-forked child
+ processes or threads within a process, is an indication of how
+ many requests your server can manage concurrently. It is merely
+ a rough estimate because the kernel can queue connection
+ attempts for your web server. When your site becomes busy and
+ the maximum number of workers is running, the machine
+ doesn't hit a hard limit beyond which clients will be
+ denied access. However, once requests start backing up, system
+ performance is likely to degrade.
+ </p>
+
+
+ <h4><a name="MaxClients" id="MaxClients">MaxClients
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>
+ The <code>MaxClients
+ </code>
+ directive in your Apache httpd configuration file specifies
+ the maximum number of workers your server can create. It
+ has two related directives, <code>MinSpareServers
+ </code>
+ and <code>MaxSpareServers
+ </code>
+ ,which specify the number of workers Apache keeps waiting
+ in the wings ready to serve requests. The absolute maximum
+ number of processes is configurable through the <code>
+ ServerLimit
+ </code>
+ directive.
+ </p>
+
+
+
+ <h4><a name="Spinning Threads" id="Spinning Threads">Spinning Threads
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>For the prefork MPM of the above directives are all there is
+ to determining the process limit. However, if you are
+ running a threaded MPM the situation is a little more
+ complicated. Threaded MPMs support the <code>
+ ThreadsPerChild
+ </code>
+ directive1 . Apache requires that <code>MaxClients
+ </code>
+ is evenly divisible by <code>ThreadsPerChild
+ </code>
+ .If you set either directive to a number that doesn&#8217;t
+ meet this requirement, Apache will send a message of
+ complaint to the error log and adjust the <code>
+ ThreadsPerChild
+ </code>
+ value downwards until it is an even factor of <code>
+ MaxClients
+ </code>
+ .
+ </p>
+
+
+
+ <h4><a name="Sizing MaxClients" id="Sizing MaxClients">Sizing MaxClients
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>Optimally, the maximum number of processes should be set so
+ that all the memory on your system is used, but no more. If
+ your system gets so overloaded that it needs to heavily
+ swap core memory out to disk, performance will degrade
+ quickly. The formula for determining <code>MaxClients
+ </code>
+ is fairly simple:
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ total RAM &#8722; RAM for OS &#8722; RAM for external programs<br />
+ MaxClients =
+ -------------------------------------------------------<br />
+ RAM per httpd process
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>The various amounts of memory allocated for the OS, external
+ programs and the httpd processes is best determined by
+ observation: use the top and free commands described above
+ to determine the memory footprint of the OS without the web
+ server running. You can also determine the footprint of a
+ typical web server process from top: most top
+ implementations have a Resident Size (RSS) column and a
+ Shared Memory column.
+ </p>
+ <p>The difference between these two is the amount of memory
+ per-process. The shared segment really exists only once and
+ is used for the code and libraries loaded and the dynamic
+ inter-process tally, or 'scoreboard,' that Apache
+ keeps. How much memory each process takes for itself
+ depends heavily on the number and kind of modules you use.
+ The best approach to use in determining this need is to
+ generate a typical test load against your web site and see
+ how large the httpd processes become.
+ </p>
+ <p>The RAM for external programs parameter is intended mostly
+ for CGI programs and scripts that run outside the web
+ server process. However, if you have a Java virtual machine
+ running Tomcat on the same box it will need a significant
+ amount of memory as well. The above assessment should give
+ you an idea how far you can push <code>MaxClients
+ </code>
+ ,but it is not an exact science. When in doubt, be
+ conservative and use a low <code>MaxClients
+ </code>
+ value. The Linux kernel will put extra memory to good use
+ for caching disk access. On Solaris you need enough
+ available real RAM memory to create any process. If no real
+ memory is available, httpd will start writing &#8216;No space
+ left on device&#8217; messages to the error log and be unable
+ to fork additional child processes, so a higher <code>
+ MaxClients
+ </code>
+ value may actually be a disadvantage.
+ </p>
+
+
+
+ <h4><a name="Selecting your MPM" id="Selecting your MPM">Selecting your MPM
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>The prime reason for selecting a threaded MPM is that
+ threads consume fewer system resources than processes, and
+ it takes less effort for the system to switch between
+ threads. This is more true for some operating systems than
+ for others. On systems like Solaris and AIX, manipulating
+ processes is relatively expensive in terms of system
+ resources. On these systems, running a threaded MPM makes
+ sense. On Linux, the threading implementation actually uses
+ one process for each thread. Linux processes are relatively
+ lightweight, but it means that a threaded MPM offers less
+ of a performance advantage than in other environments.
+ </p>
+ <p>Running a threaded MPM can cause stability problems in some
+ situations For instance, should a child process of a
+ preforked MPM crash, at most one client connection is
+ affected. However, if a threaded child crashes, all the
+ threads in that process disappear, which means all the
+ clients currently being served by that process will see
+ their connection aborted. Additionally, there may be
+ so-called "thread-safety" issues, especially with
+ third-party libraries. In threaded applications, threads
+ may access the same variables indiscriminately, not knowing
+ whether a variable may have been changed by another thread.
+ </p>
+ <p>This has been a sore point within the PHP community. The PHP
+ processor heavily relies on third-party libraries and
+ cannot guarantee that all of these are thread-safe. The
+ good news is that if you are running Apache on Linux, you
+ can run PHP in the preforked MPM without fear of losing too
+ much performance relative to the threaded option.
+ </p>
+
+
+
+ <h4><a name="Spinning Locks" id="Spinning Locks">Spinning Locks
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>Apache httpd maintains an inter-process lock around its
+ network listener. For all practical purposes, this means
+ that only one httpd child process can receive a request at
+ any given time. The other processes are either servicing
+ requests already received or are 'camping out' on
+ the lock, waiting for the network listener to become
+ available. This process is best visualized as a revolving
+ door, with only one process allowed in the door at any
+ time. On a heavily loaded web server with requests arriving
+ constantly, the door spins quickly and requests are
+ accepted at a steady rate. On a lightly loaded web server,
+ the process that currently "holds" the lock may
+ have to stay in the door for a while, during which all the
+ other processes sit idle, waiting to acquire the lock. At
+ this time, the parent process may decide to terminate some
+ children based on its <code>MaxSpareServers
+ </code>
+ directive.
+ </p>
+
+
+
+ <h4><a name="The Thundering Herd" id="The Thundering Herd">The Thundering Herd
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>The function of the 'accept mutex' (as this
+ inter-process lock is called) is to keep request reception
+ moving along in an orderly fashion. If the lock is absent,
+ the server may exhibit the Thundering Herd syndrome.
+ </p>
+ <p>Consider an American Football team poised on the line of
+ scrimmage. If the football players were Apache processes
+ all team members would go for the ball simultaneously at
+ the snap. One process would get it, and all the others
+ would have to lumber back to the line for the next snap. In
+ this metaphor, the accept mutex acts as the quarterback,
+ delivering the connection "ball" to the
+ appropriate player process.
+ </p>
+ <p>Moving this much information around is obviously a lot of
+ work, and, like a smart person, a smart web server tries to
+ avoid it whenever possible. Hence the revolving door
+ construction. In recent years, many operating systems,
+ including Linux and Solaris, have put code in place to
+ prevent the Thundering Herd syndrome. Apache recognizes
+ this and if you run with just one network listener, meaning
+ one virtual host or just the main server, Apache will
+ refrain from using an accept mutex. If you run with
+ multiple listeners (for instance because you have a virtual
+ host serving SSL requests), it will activate the accept
+ mutex to avoid internal conflicts.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ You can manipulate the accept mutex with the <code>
+ AcceptMutex
+ </code>
+ directive. Besides turning the accept mutex off, you can
+ select the locking mechanism. Common locking mechanisms
+ include fcntl, System V Semaphores and pthread locking. Not
+ all are available on every platform, and their availability
+ also depends on compile-time settings. The various locking
+ mechanisms may place specific demands on system resources:
+ manipulate them with care.
+ </p>
+ <p>There is no compelling reason to disable the accept mutex.
+ Apache automatically recognizes the single listener
+ situation described above and knows if it is safe to run
+ without mutex on your platform.
+ </p>

+ <h3><a name="Tuning the Operating System" id="Tuning the Operating System">Tuning the Operating System

+
+ <p>People often look for the 'magic tune-up' that will
+ make their system perform four times as fast by tweaking just
+ one little setting. The truth is, present-day UNIX derivatives
+ are pretty well adjusted straight out of the box and there is
+ not a lot that needs to be done to make them perform optimally.
+ However, there are a few things that an administrator can do to
+ improve performance.

+
+
+ <h4><a name="RAM and Swap Space" id="RAM and Swap Space">RAM and Swap Space
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>The usual mantra regarding RAM is "more is
+ better". As discussed above, unused RAM is put to good
+ use as file system cache. The Apache processes get bigger
+ if you load more modules, especially if you use modules
+ that generate dynamic page content within the processes,
+ like PHP and mod_perl. A large configuration file-with many
+ virtual hosts-also tends to inflate the process footprint.
+ Having ample RAM allows you to run Apache with more child
+ processes, which allows the server to process more
+ concurrent requests.
+ </p>
+ <p>While the various platforms treat their virtual memory in
+ different ways, it is never a good idea to run with less
+ disk-based swap space than RAM. The virtual memory system
+ is designed to provide a fallback for RAM, but when you
+ don't have disk space available and run out of
+ swappable memory, your machine grinds to a halt. This can
+ crash your box, requiring a physical reboot for which your
+ hosting facility may charge you.
+ </p>
+ <p>Also, such an outage naturally occurs when you least want
+ it: when the world has found your website and is beating a
+ path to your door. If you have enough disk-based swap space
+ available and the machine gets overloaded, it may get very,
+ very slow as the system needs to swap memory pages to disk
+ and back, but when the load decreases the system should
+ recover. Remember, you still have <code>MaxClients
+ </code>
+ to keep things in hand.
+ </p>
+ <p>Most unix-like operating systems use designated disk
+ partitions for swap space. When a system starts up it finds
+ all swap partitions on the disk(s), by partition type or
+ because they are listed in the file <code>/etc/fstab
+ </code>
+ ,and automatically enables them. When adding a disk or
+ installing the operating system, be sure to allocate enough
+ swap space to accommodate eventual RAM upgrades.
+ Reassigning disk space on a running system is a cumbersome
+ process.
+ </p>
+ <p>Plan for available hard drive swap space of at least twice
+ your amount of RAM, perhaps up to four times in situations
+ with frequent peaking loads. Remember to adjust this
+ configuration whenever you upgrade RAM on your system. In a
+ pinch, you can use a regular file as swap space. For
+ instructions on how to do this, see the manual pages for
+ the <code>mkswap
+ </code>
+ and <code>swapon
+ </code>
+ or <code>swap
+ </code>
+ programs.

+ <h4><a name="ulimit: Files and Processes" id="ulimit: Files and Processes">ulimit: Files and Processes
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>Given a machine with plenty of RAM and processor capacity,
+ you can run hundreds of Apache processes if necessary. . .
+ and if your kernel allows it.
+ </p>
+ <p>Consider a situation in which several hundred web servers
+ are running; if some of these need to spawn CGI processes,
+ the maximum number of processes would occur quickly.
+ </p>
+ <p>However, you can change this limit with the command
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ ulimit [-H|-S] -u [newvalue]
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>This must be changed before starting the server, since the
+ new value will only be available to the current shell and
+ programs started from it. In newer Linux kernels the
+ default has been raised to 2048. On FreeBSD, the number
+ seems to be the rather unusual 513. In the default user
+ shell on this system, <code>csh
+ </code>
+ the equivalent is <code>limit
+ </code>
+ and works analogous the the Bourne-like <code>ulimit
+ </code>
+ :
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ limit [-h] maxproc [newvalue]
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>Similarly, the kernel may limit the number of open files per
+ process. This is generally not a problem for pre-forked
+ servers, which just handle one request at a time per
+ process. Threaded servers, however, serve many requests per
+ process and much more easily run out of available file
+ descriptors. You can increase the maximum number of open
+ files per process by running the
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>ulimit -n [newvalue]
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>command. Once again, this must be done prior to starting
+ Apache.
+ </p>
+
+
+
+ <h4><a name="Setting User Limits on System Startup" id="Setting User Limits on System Startup">Setting User Limits on System Startup
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>Under Linux, you can set the ulimit parameters on bootup by
+ editing the <code>/etc/security/limits.conf
+ </code>
+ file. This file allows you to set soft and hard limits on a
+ per-user or per-group basis; the file contains commentary
+ explaining the options. To enable this, make sure that the
+ file <code>/etc/pam.d/login
+ </code>
+ contains the line
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>All items can have a 'soft' and a 'hard'
+ limit: the first is the default setting and the second the
+ maximum value for that item.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ In FreeBSD's <code>/etc/login.conf
+ </code>
+ these resources can be limited or extended system wide,
+ analogously to <code>limits.conf
+ </code>
+ .'Soft' limits can be specified with <code>-cur
+ </code>
+ and 'hard' limits with <code>-max
+ </code>
+ .
+ </p>
+ <p>Solaris has a similar mechanism for manipulating limit
+ values at boot time: In <code>/etc/system
+ </code>
+ you can set kernel tunables valid for the entire system at
+ boot time. These are the same tunables that can be set with
+ the <code>mdb
+ </code>
+ kernel debugger during run time. The soft and hard limit
+ corresponding to ulimit -u can be set via:
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ set rlim_fd_max=65536<br />
+ set rlim_fd_cur=2048
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>Solaris calculates the maximum number of allowed processes
+ per user (<code>maxuprc
+ </code>
+ )based on the total amount available memory on the system (<code>
+ maxusers
+ </code>
+ ). You can review the numbers with
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>sysdef -i | grep maximum
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>but it is not recommended to change them.

+ <h4><a name="Turn Off Unused Services and Modules" id="Turn Off Unused Services and Modules">Turn Off Unused Services and Modules
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>Many UNIX and Linux distributions come with a slew of
+ services turned on by default. You probably need few of
+ them. For example, your web server does not need to be
+ running sendmail, nor is it likely to be an NFS server,
+ etc. Turn them off.
+ </p>
+ <p>On Red Hat Linux, the chkconfig tool will help you do this
+ from the command line. On Solaris systems <code>svcs
+ </code>
+ and <code>svcadm
+ </code>
+ will show which services are enabled and disable them
+ respectively.
+ </p>
+ <p>In a similar fashion, cast a critical eye on the Apache
+ modules you load. Most binary distributions of Apache
+ httpd, and pre-installed versions that come with Linux
+ distributions, have their modules enabled through the <code>
+ LoadModule
+ </code>
+ directive.
+ </p>
+ <p>Unused modules may be culled: if you don't rely on
+ their functionality and configuration directives, you can
+ turn them off by commenting out the corresponding <code>
+ LoadModule
+ </code>
+ lines. Read the documentation on each module&#8217;s
+ functionality before deciding whether to keep it enabled.
+ While the performance overhead of an unused module is
+ small, it's also unnecessary.

+<h2><a name="Caching Content" id="Caching Content">Caching Content
+ </a></h2>
+
+ <p>Requests for dynamically generated content usually take
+ significantly more resources than requests for static content.
+ Static content consists of simple filespages, images, etc.-on disk
+ that are very efficiently served. Many operating systems also
+ automatically cache the contents of frequently accessed files in
+ memory.
+ </p>
+ <p>Processing dynamic requests, on the contrary, can be much more
+ involved. Running CGI scripts, handing off requests to an external
+ application server and accessing database content can introduce
+ significant latency and processing load to a busy web server. Under
+ many circumstances, performance can be improved by turning popular
+ dynamic requests into static requests. In this section, two
+ approaches to this will be discussed.
+ </p>
+
+
+ <h3><a name="Making Popular Pages Static" id="Making Popular Pages Static">Making Popular Pages Static
+ </a></h3>
+
+ <p>By pre-rendering the response pages for the most popular queries
+ in your application, you can gain a significant performance
+ improvement without giving up the flexibility of dynamically
+ generated content. For instance, if your application is a
+ flower delivery service, you would probably want to pre-render
+ your catalog pages for red roses during the weeks leading up to
+ Valentine's Day. When the user searches for red roses,
+ they are served the pre-rendered page. Queries for, say, yellow
+ roses will be generated directly from the database. The
+ mod_rewrite module included with Apache is a great tool to
+ implement these substitutions.
+ </p>
+
+
+ <h4><a name="Example: A Statically Rendered Blog" id="Example: A Statically Rendered Blog">Example: A Statically Rendered Blog
+ </a></h4>
+
+ <p>
+ <strong>'we should provide a more useful example here.
+ One showing how to make Wordpress or Drupal suck less.
+ </strong>
+ '
+ </p>
+ <p>Blosxom is a lightweight web log package that runs as a CGI.
+ It is written in Perl and uses plain text files for entry
+ input. Besides running as CGI, Blosxom can be run from the
+ command line to pre-render blog pages. Pre-rendering pages
+ to static HTML can yield a significant performance boost in
+ the event that large numbers of people actually start
+ reading your blog.
+ </p>
+ <p>To run blosxom for static page generation, edit the CGI
+ script according to the documentation. Set the $static dir
+ variable to the <code>DocumentRoot
+ </code>
+ of the web server, and run the script from the command line
+ as follows:
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>$ perl blosxom.cgi -password='whateveryourpassword'
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>This can be run periodically from Cron, after you upload
+ content, etc. To make Apache substitute the statically
+ rendered pages for the dynamic content, we&#8217;ll use
+ mod_rewrite. This module is included with the Apache source
+ code, but is not compiled by default. It can be built with
+ the server by passing the option <code>
+ --enable-rewrite[=shared]
+ </code>
+ to the configure command. Many binary distributions of
+ Apache come with mod_rewrite included. The following is an
+ example of an Apache virtual host that takes advantage of
+ pre-rendered blog pages:
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>Listen *:8001<br />
+ &lt;VirtualHost *:8001&gt;<br />
+ <span class="indent">
+ ServerName blog.sandla.org:8001<br />
+ ServerAdmin sander@temme.net<br />
+ DocumentRoot "/home/sctemme/inst/blog/httpd/htdocs"<br />
+ &lt;Directory
+ "/home/sctemme/inst/blog/httpd/htdocs"&gt;<br />
+ <span class="indent">
+ Options +Indexes<br />
+ Order allow,deny<br />
+ Allow from all<br />
+ RewriteEngine on<br />
+ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f<br />
+ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d<br />
+ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /cgi-bin/blosxom.cgi/$1 [L,QSA]<br />
+ </span>
+ &lt;/Directory&gt;<br />
+ RewriteLog
+ /home/sctemme/inst/blog/httpd/logs/rewrite_log<br />
+ RewriteLogLevel 9<br />
+ ErrorLog /home/sctemme/inst/blog/httpd/logs/error_log<br />
+ LogLevel debug<br />
+ CustomLog /home/sctemme/inst/blog/httpd/logs/access_log
+ common<br />
+ ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/sctemme/inst/blog/bin/<br />
+ &lt;Directory "/home/sctemme/inst/blog/bin"&gt;<br />
+ <span class="indent">
+ Options +ExecCGI<br />
+ Order allow,deny<br />
+ Allow from all<br />
+ </span>
+ &lt;/Directory&gt;<br />
+ </span>
+ &lt;/VirtualHost&gt;
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>
+ The <code>RewriteCond
+ </code>
+ and <code>RewriteRule
+ </code>
+ directives say that, if the requested resource does not
+ exist as a file or a directory, its path is passed to the
+ Blosxom CGI for rendering. Blosxom uses Path Info to
+ specify blog entries and index pages, so this means that if
+ a particular path under Blosxom exists as a static file in
+ the file system, the file is served instead. Any request
+ that isn't pre- rendered is served by the CGI. This
+ means that individual entries, which show the comments, are
+ always served by the CGI which in turn means that your
+ comment spam is always visible. This configuration also
+ hides the Blosxom CGI from the user-visible URL in their
+ Location bar. mod_rewrite is a fantastically powerful and
+ versatile module: investigate it to arrive at a
+ configuration that is best for your situation.
+ </p>
+
+
+
+
+ <h3><a name="Caching Content With mod_cache" id="Caching Content With mod_cache">Caching Content With mod_cache
+ </a></h3>
+
+ <p>The mod_cache module provides intelligent caching of HTTP
+ responses: it is aware of the expiration timing and content
+ requirements that are part of the HTTP specification. The
+ mod_cache module caches URL response content. If content sent
+ to the client is considered cacheable, it is saved to disk.
+ Subsequent requests for that URL will be served directly from
+ the cache. The provider module for mod_cache, mod_disk_cache,
+ determines how the cached content is stored on disk. Most
+ server systems will have more disk available than memory, and
+ it's good to note that some operating system kernels cache
+ frequently accessed disk content transparently in memory, so
+ replicating this in the server is not very useful.
+ </p>
+ <p>To enable efficient content caching and avoid presenting the
+ user with stale or invalid content, the application that
+ generates the actual content has to send the correct response
+ headers. Without headers like <code>Etag:
+ </code>
+ ,<code>Last-Modified:
+ </code>
+ or <code>Expires:
+ </code>
+ ,mod_cache can not make the right decision on whether to cache
+ the content, serve it from cache or leave it alone. When
+ testing content caching, you may find that you need to modify
+ your application or, if this is impossible, selectively disable
+ caching for URLs that cause problems. The mod_cache modules are
+ not compiled by default, but can be enabled by passing the
+ option <code>--enable-cache[=shared]
+ </code>
+ to the configure script. If you use a binary distribution of
+ Apache httpd, or it came with your port or package collection,
+ it may have mod_cache already included.
+ </p>

+
+ <h4><a name="Example: wiki.apache.org" id="Example: wiki.apache.org">Example: wiki.apache.org

+
+ <p>
+ <strong>'Is this still the case? Maybe we should give
+ a better example here too.
+ </strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The Apache Software Foundation Wiki is served by <a href="/httpd/MoinMoin">
+ MoinMoin
+ </a>
+ .<a href="/httpd/MoinMoin">MoinMoin
+ </a>
+ is written in Python and runs as a CGI. To date, any
+ attempts to run it under mod_python has been unsuccessful.
+ The CGI proved to place an untenably high load on the
+ server machine, especially when the Wiki was being indexed
+ by search engines like Google. To lighten the load on the
+ server machine, the Apache Infrastructure team turned to
+ mod_cache. It turned out <a href="/httpd/MoinMoin">MoinMoin
+ </a>
+ needed a small patch to ensure proper behavior behind the
+ caching server: certain requests can never be cached and
+ the corresponding Python modules were patched to send the
+ proper HTTP response headers. After this modification, the
+ cache in front of the Wiki was enabled with the following
+ configuration snippet in <code>httpd.conf
+ </code>
+ :
+ </p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ CacheRoot /raid1/cacheroot<br />
+ CacheEnable disk /<br />
+ # A page modified 100 minutes ago will expire in 10 minutes<br />
+ CacheLastModifiedFactor .1<br />
+ # Always check again after 6 hours<br />
+ CacheMaxExpire 21600
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>This configuration will try to cache any and all content
+ within its virtual host. It will never cache content for
+ more than six hours (the <code>CacheMaxExpire
+ </code>
+ directive). If no <code>Expires:
+ </code>
+ header is present in the response, mod_cache will compute
+ an expiration period from the <code>Last-Modified:
+ </code>
+ header. The computation using <code>CacheLastModifiedFactor
+ </code>
+ is based on the assumption that if a page was recently
+ modified, it is likely to change again in the near future
+ and will have to be re-cached.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Do note that it can pay off to <em>disable
+ </em>
+ the <code>ETag:
+ </code>
+ header: For files smaller than 1k the server has to
+ calculate the checksum (usually MD5) and then send out a <code>
+ 304 Not Modified
+ </code>
+ response, which will take waste some CPU and still saturate
+ the same amount of network resources for the transfer (one
+ TCP packet). For resources larger than 1k it might prove
+ CPU expensive to calculate the header for each request.
+ Unfortunately there does currently not exist a way to cache
+ these headers.
+ </p>
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ &lt;FilesMatch \.(jpe?g|png|gif|js|css|x?html|xml)&gt;<br />
+ <span class="indent">
+ FilesETag None<br />
+ </span>
+ &lt;/FilesMatch&gt;
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>
+ This will disable the generation of the <code>ETag:
+ </code>
+ header for most static resources. The server does not
+ calculate these headers for dynamic resources.
