Hi, All, We have an Apache-2.0.52 installed in our Solaris 2.8 host. It's a HTTPS server. the configuration is as below: ============================== <IfModule worker.c> ServerLimit 22 StartServers 15 MaxClients 500 MinSpareThreads 25 MaxSpareThreads 20 ThreadsPerChild 25 MaxRequestsPerChild 3000 </IfModule> ============================== The Max. # of processes is supposed to be MaxClients/ThreadsPerChild = 500/25 = 20, and the ServerLimit=22. However, we found the total processes is 46. Some child processes hang there for 7 hours. Can someone help me to understand why, and how do we control the ServerLimit to what we want? Thanks, Q.Xie __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
