    Hi All

    Im running Apache 2.0.53 server on 5.4-RC3 AMD64 in Worker mode. This webserver serves 50000 hits per hour. Whats currently happening is it works fine for 8 hours then the server just starts spawning httpd processes when it reaches about 70 processes the box runs out of memory and swap space then crashes :(

    This is what I currently have set:
    ServerLimit 16
    StartServers 2
    MaxClients 150
    MinSpareThreads 25
    MaxSpareThreads 75
    ThreadsPerChild 25
    MaxRequestsPerChild 20000
    EnableSendfile Off
    HostnameLookups Off
    EnableMMAP on
    Timeout 120
    KeepAlive On
    MaxKeepAliveRequests 1024
    KeepAliveTimeout 15

    Anyone seen this perhaps a better way of doing it?

    Thanks
    Mark
