TheGU / mod-auth-token

This module uses token based authentication to secure downloads and prevent deep-linking. Have your script or servlet generate a token to authenticate the download and let Apache handle the file transfer without having to pipe it through a script for security.

Profiling and performance review #19

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Again this relates to using this module in a deployed enviornment.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would like to have performance metrics available for this module esp. the 
functions in mod_auth_token.c  I have been wondering lately what how this 
impacts Apache at peak load, and if performance could be drastically improved 
on specialized servers with graphics cards and technologies such as CUDA and 
ATI Stream App technology that allows compiling C code down to run on the 
graphics GPU units.  Possibly even better encryption could be supported this 
way.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Ubuntu linux

Please provide any additional information below.
Wish I knew more about this library...

This is interesting, and can be on the roadmap. Obviously , the module has an 
impact on the performance.

I will plan tests for that and graph them.
