benchmarking Apache on NT

[Marc Slemko <ma...@worldgate.com>]

Did some prelim. benchmarks of 1.3b3 on NT (just using zb).  Seems to
provide reasonable numbers, although the difference between reasonable and
good is not determinable in my setup.

I do see a huge problem when there get to be thousands of sockets in
TIME_WAIT; it then takes over 10 seconds to connect to the port!  This is
even when there are no other ESTABLISHED connections.  I'm wondering if it
is just inefficent handling of the data structures.

BSDI uses a seperate hash table for connections in TIME_WAIT.  Looks like
MS lumps them all together, and perhaps does linear search!?!  Sigh.

NT4.0 SP3, ppro 200, 64 megs of RAM.
