cps_max (max new connections received per second), sps_max (max new sessions per second) and http.rps_max (maximum new http requests per second) all rely on shared counters (namely conn_per_sec, sess_per_sec and http.req_per_sec). The problem is that shared counters are about to be distributed over thread groups, and we cannot afford to compute the total (for all thread groups) each time we update the max counters. Instead, since such max counters (relying on shared counters) are a very few exceptions, let's add internal (sess,conn,req) per sec freq counters that are dedicated to cps_max, sps_max and http.rps_max computing. Thanks to that, related *_max counters shouldn't be negatively impacted by the thread-group distribution, yet they will not benefit from it either. Related internal freq counters are prefixed with "_" to emphasize the fact that they should not be used for other purpose (the shared ones, which are about to be distributed over thread groups in upcoming commits are still available and must be used instead). The internal ones could eventually be removed at any time if we find another way to compute the {cps,sps,http.rps)_max counters. |

HAProxy
HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable reverse-proxy offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications.
Installation
The INSTALL file describes how to build HAProxy. A list of packages is also available on the wiki.
Getting help
The discourse and the mailing-list are available for questions or configuration assistance. You can also use the slack or IRC channel. Please don't use the issue tracker for these.
The issue tracker is only for bug reports or feature requests.
Documentation
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. It is available in text format as well as HTML. The wiki is also meant to replace the old architecture guide.
Please refer to the following files depending on what you're looking for:
- INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install HAProxy
- BRANCHES to understand the project's life cycle and what version to use
- LICENSE for the project's license
- CONTRIBUTING for the process to follow to submit contributions
The more detailed documentation is located into the doc/ directory:
- doc/intro.txt for a quick introduction on HAProxy
- doc/configuration.txt for the configuration's reference manual
- doc/lua.txt for the Lua's reference manual
- doc/SPOE.txt for how to use the SPOE engine
- doc/network-namespaces.txt for how to use network namespaces under Linux
- doc/management.txt for the management guide
- doc/regression-testing.txt for how to use the regression testing suite
- doc/peers.txt for the peers protocol reference
- doc/coding-style.txt for how to adopt HAProxy's coding style
- doc/internals for developer-specific documentation (not all up to date)
