Passenger and KeepAlive again

Hello,

some time ago I sent this. What folks thing about it? Is it good idea to
proceed and set the KeepAlive to On? I have been testing this for a
while now on my development/testing instances and it works just fine. We
need more testing with some decent data and user sessions.

Hello,

I’ve learned today that when I turn on the KeepAlive option in
httpd.conf the experience is much better, particularly on a slower VPN
connection.

We do not turn that on by default. What are experiences with this in
production deployment?

…default installer options snippet…

Timeout 120
KeepAlive Off
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 15

From what I’ve learned from the internet, this setting can be
problematic when used together with mod_passenger in some scenarios
(memory consumption).

+1 from me… Been running it internally in our lab instances and no ill
effects.

Running some instances with mmoll without any issues, I am creating
ticket for this:

It's not a oneliner, hopefully someone with puppet experience will pick
it up. Thanks :slight_smile:
