Frequently used constants when constructing requests or responses. Many times the constant just refers to a string with the same contents. Using these constants gave about a 3% to 10% performance improvement over using the strings directly. Symbols did not really improve things much compared to constants.
While Mongrel does try to emulate the CGI/1.2 protocol, it does not use the REMOTE_IDENT, REMOTE_USER, or REMOTE_HOST parameters since those are either a security problem or too taxing on performance.
This is the part of the path after the SCRIPT_NAME. URIClassifier will determine this.
This is the initial part that your handler is identified as by URIClassifier.
The original URI requested by the client. Passed to URIClassifier to build PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME.
The standard empty 404 response for bad requests. Use Error4040Handler for custom stuff.
A common header for indicating the server is too busy. Not used yet.
The basic max request size we’ll try to read.
This is the maximum header that is allowed before a client is booted. The parser detects this, but we’d also like to do this as well.
Maximum request body size before it is moved out of memory and into a tempfile for reading.
A frozen format for this is about 15% faster
ETag is based on the apache standard of hex mtime-size-inode (inode is 0 on win32)
