Question on Max Connection

[jiangti]

I am planning to use litespeed, on the front, and proxying dynamic stuff to apache, while litespeed server images.

What happens to max connection limits when most traffic are just proxied to backend? Does proxied connection remains counted until the backend connection finishes?

Thanks.

The max connection limits is the number of concurrent client connections a server can have, no matter how the requests should be processed.

Why not let LiteSpeed handle the dynamic pages directly, it should be much more efficient than forwarding to backend apache.
