Depends. If the user saw a 50x error page from the server, then yes.
If the *browser* timed out before receiving a response, then maybe
not. Like Zope, Apache doesn't put a line in the access log until it
has finished processing the request and sent a response back. If Zope
is more or less hung, and Apache has a long ProxyTimeout configured (I
believe the result is 300 seconds), then you might not see anything
logged. I am not sure what the default timeouts in various browsers
would be, but my subjective impression is that it's lower than 300
seconds.
That's why I suggested the trace log; you can see exactly what
requests come in as they arrive, and whether & when a response gets
sent back.
