Apache

MPM Workers

 

REQUEST:

Please change your worker parameter naming convention in regards to MAX.

 

Example:

Parameter1

MaxParameter1

Parameter2

MaxParameter2

 

Why?  I completely misunderstood the difference between ThreadLimit and ThreadsPerChild.  I have wasted over 8 hours researching the difference.

 

Try this out:

ThreadsPerChild    32

MaxThreadsPerChild  40

 

It is obvious what the relationship is between parameters with and without the prefix “max”.  Compare these ThreadLimit and ThreadsPerChild.  Following my proposed standard makes the relationship obvious.

 

Thanks

I agree that the naming can be surprising, but https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/en/mod/mpm_common.html#threadlimit is, IMHO, clear enough.

A similar explanation should be added in https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/en/mod/mpm_common.html#threadsperchild to help figure out the relationship between these 2 directives.
