Author reverse proxy mode, HTTP 1.0 or 1.1?

I'm now running Perlbal in reverse proxy mode. But I notice that all
requests to the backend are HTTP 1.0, even when the client initiates
a 1.1 request.

Is this normal and could it cause a problem?

thanks

Yes, that's normal. Perlbal only speaks 1.0 to the backends regardless of
what the clients are speaking.

It shouldn't matter, anyway. Clients may send their 1.1 request, but when
they get a 1.0 response from Perlbal, they should switch to 1.0 mode.

We haven't had any problems yet, and I imagine that LiveJournal sees it all!
