But if the visitor is on a slow speed link > (roughly 128K or less) > it starts out ok, but after a while (minutes) the Apache > child process stops > sending data and actually terminates the child process. > > The child process is not getting a signal, it's shutting down > cleanly as > if it had reached the max requests per child (but it hasn't). > There are no > errors logged anywhere (in Apache or the O/S logs).
