I'm running Apache on Linux within VMWare.
One of the PHP pages I'm requesting does a sleep()
, and I find that if I attempt to request a second page whilst the first page is sleep()'ing
, the second page hangs, waiting for the sleep()
from the first page to finish.
Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
I know that PHP isn't multi-threaded, but this seems like gross mishandling of the CPU.
Edit: I should've mentioned that the CPU usage doesn't spike. What I mean by CPU "hogging" is that no other PHP page seems able to use the CPU whilst the page is sleep()'ing.
It could be that the called page opens a session and then doesn't commit it, in this case see this answer for a solution.
