2 front end Apache RT boxes

I recently noticed that instead of Mysql being the bottleneck as I
expected, it appears Apache is causing most of the delays. As large
tickets (which 30+ related to and depended on by) are opened I see httpd
use 5-10 seconds of CPU time, I assume mod_perl building the page.

Would it be a bad idea to have two RT installs (same config, just
different boxes) each pointing to the same database server?

We’re running RT 3.0.3pre3, DBIx-SearchBuilder-0.86, Apache-1.3.27,
mod_perl 1.27 (not DSO), and Mysql 4.0.13.

Thanks

I haven’t tried it, but I don’t see any reasons why it shouldn’t work.
After all, the RT instances in the Apache processes are runnning
independently anyway, so it shouldn’t make any difference if they’re on
different hosts.
