What is strange is, that this does not happen every time a new connection is made. When requesting the same page continuously, the connection gets disconnected after the 100th call. As it should because of the KeepAliveRequests setting. When the client reconnects, it sometimes is near instantaneous and sometimes takes up 30seconds. The times vary from 35ms to 30seconds. > > and HostnameLookups is Off! > isn't it turned on somewhere? The HostnameLookups setting is global. I have not tried to put it into each VirtualHost.

This is a straightforward HTTP GET request. I don't think IDENT is a problem here. > > Does Apache count (reverse) DNS lookups towards the execution time? > I guess so. Then you should see the time in the access.log, which we are not.
