It's hard to give an answer to your performance concern, but I suspect that
setting up your reverse proxy on your Windows server and serving static content
directly from the Windows file system would perform the best. Have the proxy
only forward requests for dynamic content to your IBM i server.

Subject: [WEB400] Webserving pdfs via reverse proxy, QNTC, NFS

Hello,

I was curious as to the group's experience serving static content from the
following: reverse proxy, QNTC and NFS.

Current Config:
We have a web box (as/400 v5r4) running apache. Currently it serves pdf content
from another web server (also running apache) via a reverse proxy. We have been
encountering some performance issues which I believe are tied to this setup.

I do have other options for serving this data, such as dropping the reverse
proxy, and map an IFS path to the other machine with either NFS or QNTC.

Does anyone have any input as to which provides better performance?

Thank you for your input.
Jeff
