Redirection delay (using "Location:") using Win NT browsers

           Summary: Redirection delay (using "Location:") using Win NT
                    browsers
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.42
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: apachebugreporter@yahoo.com


Hi,

Unlike Apache 1.3.X, Apache 2.0.X (including 2.0.42) takes about 4 seconds
to redirect automatically using the Location header, when being accessed
by browsers (Explorer, Netscape, and Mozilla) from Windows NT machines 
(NT4 SP6a).  Netscape from Linux (RH7.3) does not experience this delay.

As an example, when users type in www.example.com into their browsers, our
site will automatically perform a redirect using the Location header to,
for example, "http://www.example.com/.x/ah8qhrrbfr/ho".

Under Apache 1.3.X, this entire redirect process and popping up the final
page takes less than one second, under Apache 2.0.42 it takes about four
seconds, when accessed from Windows NT.  From Linux, Apache 1.3 & 2 perform
the same.
