How do I choose the best settings for the Apache Server?

[Jason Long <hack3rcon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
My server has 6 GB RAM and 4 virtual CPUs. I want to know How can I change the following settings for better performance?


Timeout 45
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 15

<IfModule mpm_prefork_module>
    StartServers                 3
    MinSpareServers         3
    MaxSpareServers        3
    ServerLimit                   50
    MaxClients                    50
    MaxRequestsPerChild  1000
</IfModule>

<IfModule mpm_worker_module>
    StartServers              3
    MaxClients                50
    MinSpareThreads     3
    MaxSpareThreads    3 
    ThreadsPerChild       25
    MaxRequestsPerChild  1000
</IfModule>


I'm thankful if anyone can guide me to choose the above settings according to my server hardware specifications. If you know of other settings, please share.


Thank you.
