ProxyPass /servlets-examples/ http://localhost:8080/servlets-examples/ ProxyPassReverse /servlets-examples/ http://localhost:8080/servlets-examples/ Ab -n 1000 Time taken for tests: 4.226077 seconds Mod_jk-1.26 JkWorkersFile conf/workers.properties JkMount /servlets-examples/* ajp13 Time taken for tests: 2.824061 seconds A lot, lot faster. What is more interesting is when you increase the number of loops forom 1000 to 10000 Ab -n 10000 Time taken for tests: 239.614549 seconds Complete requests: 10000 Failed requests: 7011 Using mod_jk: Ab -n 10000 Time taken for tests: 21.811363 seconds Complete requests: 10000 Failed requests: 0 So, mod_proxy is a lot slower and doesn't handle load. (Perhaps increasing http listeners on TC would help). MT.
