Aaron,

 

Thank you for your quick response. The httpclass is used to send requests through ASM, we do not want to do this if the request is an image. The slowness isn't on the LTM but on responsiveness on the website. With the rule in we are get about 600MB of traffic with a 10 second overall response time. We normally see a response time of 4-5 seconds. The CPU on the LTM maintains at around 50% idle the entire time so it isn't a resource issue.

 

Thanks again for your help
