I hava a webserver and from a week ago as my register client numeber start rising it start working slowly and i have tryed to find a reason for this my webserver stands on 4 gb ram memory and 2 xeon 2.33 used memory is abouth 2 GB and processors bearly reach 20 % i have made a script that counts running httpd services and it can't pass 259 and i think there is a problem with my MPM configuration : <IfModule prefork.c> StartServers 5 MinSpareServers 5 MaxSpareServers 10 MaxClients 150 change it to 200 MaxRequestsPerChild 0 </IfModule> and still having the same problem, do i have to change MinSpareServ, MaxSpareServ, and MaxRequestsPerChild?
most likely the essential error above is your MaxRequestsPerChild 10000 10000 seems to be default value all else is similar to mine and I have coparable load to u and zero problem s I have im my <IfModule prefork.c> StartServers 20 MinSpareServers 10 MaxSpareServers 20 ServerLimit 150 MaxClients 150 MaxRequestsPerChild 10000 </IfModule> i have approx 500'000-700'000 hits per day = approx 10+ GB / day with aove and am FAR from any server/CPU/RAM limits even if during peak hours my traffic is multiple from average! I am sure your "MaxRequestsPerChild 0" is an error of copy / paste during the setup some time ago
