title: Can reverse proxy rules affect apache reverse proxy performance?
body: <p>Just a few questions about reverse proxies and performance.</p>
  
  <p>Will there be an effect on performance if i have too many rules in my reverse proxy?</p>
  
  <p>For example, If I have 200 rules which are similiar to the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ProxyPass        /website/test/            http://www.example:8080/web/test
  ProxyPassReverse /website/test/            http://www.example:8080/web/test
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Will there be a performance improvement if i have 100, what happens if i have 1000? </p>
  
  <p>Will my reverse proxy perform better if i use a rewrite rule?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
