I could use some help in figuring out what is so slow. Also, may or may not be related: I have not configured Sendmail yet and it gets unhappy and panics every morning when it can't deliver something. it serves lots of small images and the httpd pages quite quickly, it seems only to be the large (>100k) images that slow down so much. -bill --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
