Chapter 10, Configuring the Server for Performance 235
Using perfdump Statistics to Tune Your Server
basis. If you use the
obj.conf
method, the 512 threads are allocated equally
to each of the defined virtual servers. For example, if you had two servers, each
would have 256 threads available. This is less efficient. To maximize
performance in this area, use the
virtual.conf
method. You can also
configure the listen-queue size in the Performance Tuning page of the Server
Manager.
Address
This field contains the base address that this listen socket is listening to. For
most sites that are not using hardware virtual servers, the URL is:
http://INADDR_ANY:80
”
The constant value “INADDR_ANY” is known internally to the server that
specifies that this listen socket is listening on all IP addresses for this machine.
Tuning
This setting is not tunable except as described above.
ActiveThreads
The total number of “threads” (HTTP sessions) that are in any state for this
listen socket. This is equal to
WaitingThreads
+
BusyThreads
. This setting
is not tunable.
WaitingThreads
The number of “threads” (HTTP sessions) waiting for a new TCP connection for
this listen socket.
Tuning
This is not directly tunable, but it is loosely equivalent to the
RqThrottleMinPerSocket
. See “Thread limits <min/max>” on page 236.
BusyThreads
The number of “threads” (HTTP sessions) actively processing requests which
arrived on this listen socket.
