I was under the impression that the 15 seconds timeout for php was if a page took longer than that to load, apache would kill it. I thought the worker processes would be available to serve content immediatly after its done serving a page.


No, KeepAlive operates at the HTTP level. It works just the same even if no PHP was involved. PHP timeouts are governed by a different setting.


Oh interesting, why would you want to keep a connection alive for that long? Page assets and other requests?
