Hi all,<div><br></div><div>Wondering if people can share their production hosting configs. I've been trying fast cgi with Apache (both mod_fastcgi and mod_fcgid) with varying success. mod_fcgid doesn't seem suitable due to the long startup time of new children. mod_fastcgi is better (using the jifty/CGI::Fast built in process control) but I still get an issue where sometimes in a fresh browser the combined/squished css doesn't get delivered due to a 500 for some reason (only get the incomplete headers warning in the log) and I need to reload. Doesn't happen with eg. jifty server. I'm also seeing a fair delay on the squished .css .js files before they get delivered in Firebug. I don't see that with jifty server so I assume that's also fastcgi related. I have 8 fastcgi children, so that's not the issue.</div>
<div><br></div><div>To use mod_perl2 I'll have to compile an entirely new apache and get another ip for my server, so before I go down that route I thought I'd source the wisdom of the crowd :)</div><div><br></div>
<div>I also usually do gzip compression in the perl layer, which I guess I can hack into the handler - does anyone do that? Or is mod_deflate the standard approach?</div><div><br></div><div>Mark.<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>
