We've been running some tests with Apache 2.2.4 and Linux 2.6.21. When sending 20 simultaneous HTTP GETs (one process with 20 threads sending simultaneously), we're seeing that sometimes there is a 3, 4 or even more second delay for some of the HTTP GETs appearing in the apache_log. I've captured a wireshark trace and in some cases we see retransmissions occurring, but in other cases we don't. Here is a sample of the apache logs. Note that all of the gets were originally sent out in the same second at 19:32:09. We've run these tests a number of times and seen similar results. Anyone have any idea why this could be occurring. Is this some kind of Denial of Service issue or something else?
