You need to add %D in the logformat expression. More details on http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_log_config.html I agree with Richard. Disk latency is crucial here since your code is reading from the disk. Read, write and transfer counters are the important ones along with disc queue. You can search them for your OS over Internet. Please compare that for your two environments. Let us know what you found. Thanks!
