KeepAlive Directive

Description:	Enables HTTP persistent connections
Syntax:	KeepAlive On|Off
Default:	KeepAlive On
Context:	server config, virtual host
Status:	Core
Module:	core

The Keep-Alive extension to HTTP/1.0 and the persistent connection feature of HTTP/1.1 provide long-lived HTTP sessions which allow multiple requests to be sent over the same TCP connection. In some cases this has been shown to result in an almost 50% speedup in latency times for HTML documents with many images. To enable Keep-Alive connections, set KeepAlive On.

For HTTP/1.0 clients, Keep-Alive connections will only be used if they are specifically requested by a client. In addition, a Keep-Alive connection with an HTTP/1.0 client can only be used when the length of the content is known in advance. This implies that dynamic content such as CGI output, SSI pages, and server-generated directory listings will generally not use Keep-Alive connections to HTTP/1.0 clients. For HTTP/1.1 clients, persistent connections are the default unless otherwise specified. If the client requests it, chunked encoding will be used in order to send content of unknown length over persistent connections.

KeepAliveTimeout Directive

Description:	Amount of time the server will wait for subsequent requests on a persistent connection
Syntax:	KeepAliveTimeout seconds
Default:	KeepAliveTimeout 15
Context:	server config, virtual host
Status:	Core
Module:	core

The number of seconds Apache will wait for a subsequent request before closing the connection. Once a request has been received, the timeout value specified by the Timeout directive applies.

Setting KeepAliveTimeout to a high value may cause performance problems in heavily loaded servers. The higher the timeout, the more server processes will be kept occupied waiting on connections with idle clients.

In a name-based virtual host context, the value

MaxKeepAliveRequests Directive

Description:	Number of requests allowed on a persistent connection
Syntax:	MaxKeepAliveRequests number
Default:	MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
Context:	server config, virtual host
Status:	Core
Module:	core

The MaxKeepAliveRequests directive limits the number of requests allowed per connection when KeepAlive is on. If it is set to 0, unlimited requests will be allowed. We recommend that this setting be kept to a high value for maximum server performance.

For example:

MaxKeepAliveRequests 500
