Pretty sure -- different VirtualHosts; different Directories.  In the
VirtualHost that does not use it, I have:
   SSLEngine off
I tried commenting it out -- no difference.
I just looked with WireShark -- only port 80.

I emphasize, when tested within my LAN, it is very fast.

Additional tests show that:

With httpd-2.2.8-1.fc7: works well.

With httpd-2.2.3-22.el5.centos.2: excessive DNS, much too slow.

Any thoughts?

Mike.

Looking further with WireShark, the delays are caused by DNS activity
which to not appear at all with the old configuration.  It appears
that it needs to recover information about the path to the target.

I note that in the transition, there were other changes that
might be responsible for the problem.  Mostly I moved some
repeated data into other files which I Include multiple times
in Directories and VirtualHosts. I also use some <IfDefine> to
select ServerName and certificates and keys.

Mike.
