Danke schön Rainer!

Yes, all my transaction requests use POST. We only allow GET to get a couple of 
static files.

If mod_jk retried a request which might have resulted in duplicate 
transactions, then you should find info level log messages about that in your 
mod_jk log.

If your application doesn't prevent against duplicate transaction execution, 
setting the recovery_options to "3" is recommended. Your value of "27" is save, 
in case duplicate GETs and HEADs are fine for you. One example would be, if you 
always use POST for requesting changes you don't want to see duplicate.

The official semantics of GET and HEAD require them to be idempotent, so with 
this assumption "27" is fine. Many apps do not satisfy this condition though 
and for them "3" would be better.

Rainer
