Well, it looks as though enough clients are around for this to get interesting. For example, my server is now showing around 1% more requests than transactions; all of the excess must be requests on persistent connections. I've also noticed a measureable increase in throughput and an average response time drop. It's interesting to note that the number of packets transmitted has increased slightly (per request) from before; doubtless because persistent connections require that TCPIP_NODELAY be set. Has anyone done any simulation of this side-effect?
