The number of hit/second decrease on increase load

           Summary: The number of hit/second decrease on increase load
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: 1.3.23
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ViSharma@sapient.com


We are using Apache 1.3.20, and we are tuning the sevrer for optimal 
performance. We are using Apache Bench (ab) utility to tune the server. But we 
are facing a weird behaviour which is, that as we increase the load(no of 
concurrent virtual users), the hits/sec and throughput decreases (including the 
server CPU and Memory utilization). We are using a simple html file to setup 
our Web Server.

Theoritically, the hits/sec served by any server should go to maximum level and 
then stay at the level irrespective of the increase load (the no. of concurrent 
users logging in). The server throughput would always be the same. The Response 
time will go up as the load is increased, but the throughput for the server 
remains the same.

Cau anyone tell us where we are making a mistake? Are we not doing the right 
thing? Which all places do we need to look at? 

If you need more info then kindly contact me!
