<div dir="ltr">Hey guys,<div><br></div><div> Just wondering what y'all would consider the best / optimal timeout settings for varnish servers to contact they're backends. Considering that both varnish servers and web servers are in the same datacenter. </div><div><br></div><div>So, what values do you like for these settings: </div><div><br></div><div>For the health probe: </div><div><br></div><div><div> .timeout = 1s;</div><div> .interval = 2s;</div><div> .window = 10;</div><div> .threshold = 8;</div><div><br></div><div>And for the backend hosts themselves: </div><div><br></div><div><div> .connect_timeout = 5s;</div><div> .first_byte_timeout = 10s;</div><div> .between_bytes_timeout = 2s;</div></div><div><br></div><div>Oh and heck. While we're at it, is there a general rule of thumb/best practice for this one?</div><div><br></div><div> .max_connections = 800;<br></div><div><br></div><div>Enquiring minds want to know!</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div><br></div><div>Tim</div><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature">GPG me!!<br><br>gpg --keyserver <a href="http://pool.sks-keyservers.net" target="_blank">pool.sks-keyservers.net</a> --recv-keys F186197B<br><br></div>
