The closer MinSpareServers/MaxSpareServers are, the more time
Apache needs to spend killing and creating child processes
to ensure it stays within that narrow limit

Thanks. Yes, I understand that. I set them both to that number to try and induce the issue we've been seeing.
If I set:
MinSpareServers 1024
MaxSpareServers 2048
1000+ simultaneous connections is not uncommon this server.
Within minutes I get the dreaded error after 1000 total children:
[debug] mpm_common.c(663): (70007)The timeout specified has expired: connect to listener on [::]:80
So there is something on the server preventing us from running more then 1000 total children.
Max open files is:
Max open files 16384 16384 files
I would expect a high load if this was a resource related issue, but the load is under 1.
