+ DNS resolution for origin domains +

DNS resolution happens when the socket to + the origin domain is created for the first time. + When connection pooling is used, each backend domain is resolved + only once per child process, and reused for all further connections + until the child is recycled. This information should to be considered + while planning DNS maintenance tasks involving backend domains. + Please also check ProxyPass + parameters for more details about connection reuse. +
