Guys, I need your help here. The static image loading with create-folder-dispatcher-and-handler is really slow. Here I have just 5 images and Apache loads it almost instantaneously and HT handler takes about 10 sec! I have a page where I have to use CSS and other images and the page loads painfully slow. I thought the reason was that I don't have enougt memory so I started removing packages from my Lisp process (I use CMUCL) but it doesn't help (rebooting the system or Lisp also doesn't help). Could it be any encoding issues I could play with? Here are the links for Apache and Hunchentoot handlers:

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Andrew

Bob, even if I can see it from browser the way you described, how would I benefit from it if I need to handle all my images with create-folder-dispatcher-and-handler?
Thank you, Andrew

Hi Bob,
Could you advise how would I "go straight at the hunchentoot server"?
You'll have something like:
ProxyPass /cphandler/ http://localhost:4321/cphandler/ ProxyPassReverse /cphandler/ http://localhost:4321/cphandler/in your httpd config file.
Just point your browser at whatever corresponds to http://localhost: 4321/cphandler/
BTW, if this does turn out to be faster, you might consider running it without apache at all. I've been doing this for a couple of years now (starting with TBNL) though my site is entirely dynamic. Edi has been cautious about recommending this, which I understand, but...
Cheers, Bob
If you are running on a different machine than the server you'll have to temporarily open whatever port you are using (and based on the description of your server below, I'm guessing you *are* running on a different machine (if you aren't then it is definitely time for an upgrade :-))
Also I have a feeling that the more I call the images from the server the slower it gets.
I pretty sure I've not seen this before.
I even removed (no-chache) option from the page generation so I thought that having images in caches would speed it up. In this context I think what Edi says about Hunchentoot switching contexts with Apache while page generation makes sense. My server is PIII 600 MHz, maybe it's time to upgrade it.
it should still be sufficient for a website.
Cheers, Bob
Thank you, Andrew

I got a folder on my linux box that contains about 240 images

approximately 30
seconds. Same thing from hunchentoot static handler (create-folder-dispatcher-and-handler) takes about 50 seconds. I understand it's not a big deal, but still I'd like to know what might get in the way. I use hunchentoot behind mod-proxy.
Have you tried going straight at the hunchentoot server? This as made some difference to my stuff in the past. Might give you a better idea where the problem is.
Cheers, Bob
Here are links (first is static apache, second is hunchentoot): http://www.greenpixeldesign.com/fonts.html http://www.greenpixeldesign.com/cphandler/fonts.html
