Thanks Joshua for your help. Please see my reply/comment inserted below. Thx again, Q.Xie > How are you measuring? ServerLimit is a limit on > the number of processes, not threads. On many OSes, it is > difficult to distinguish between processes and threads. Our WebServer is a SUN box with Solaris 8. It does not show threads as processes. Each Apache process is a child. So, should be easy to count the number of apache children. > Also note that ServerLimit limits only the worker > children.

So I did think the Apache parent spawned more children over the ServerLimit. You may prove it by testing it on a SUN Solaris 8 box. I am not sure if this is a feature of Apache to handle the high load condition or something abnormal on Apache. Please help!
