in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf you can edit a few things that control how apache deals with requests. things like MinSpareServers 5 MaxSpareServers 10 and MaxClients 150 This brings up a good point! How many "Clients" does cobalt complie for? This should help you. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/perf-tuning.html
Thanks very much for this info.The problem we have now is that the server basically shuts us out after about 15 minutes of heavy hitting. we cannot telnet, ssh, ftp or http to the server. Well actually we can but it takes literally about 5-10 minutes to get anything back from the server that is worth while. Since the server is about 3500 miles away, we have to call our ISP everytime for them to reboot the machine on their end.
Why does the server do this, I can understand it getting slow, but this is ridiculous. Any thoughts on how we might prevent the server from becoming so slow would be really usefull right now.
Sorry if this appears twice. I sent it from the wrong email address and had to resend. Not sure if the first copy went out properly.
