I'm running Apache httpd on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard (64-bit). In our system the httpd is a reverse proxy. It handles SSL and routes traffic to various virtual hosts. After an update from 2.2.19 (Win32) to 2.4.34 (Win64) many users reported of performance problems. Web page load times jumped from ~5 to ~50 seconds. SSL is in use and following settings are used:

httpd 2.2.19
Code:
Win32DisableAcceptEx


httpd 2.4.34
Code:
AcceptFilter http none
AcceptFilter https none
EnableSendfile Off
EnableMMAP Off


I have two test PCs in a same network. Test PC #1 (with the latest Chrome 64-bit) can load the web page always in 5 second but the test PC #2 (with the latest Chrome 32-bit) can load it in 5 second only when the old httpd version is in use. The logs error.log and access.log do not have anything special in them regarding this. I tested also with httpd 2.4.34 (Win32) but it didn't help.

How should I start to troubleshoot this performance problem?

It seems that the performance problem is related to Windows 7. Windows 10 users are not experiencing any performance problems.

It seems tinkering with the OS registry values "DefaultReceiveWindow" and "DefaultSendWindow" solved my problem. Thanks for your interest!
