Hi All,Is it possible that Apache launches a new process due to overlaod even before the MaxRequestPerChild is met?Thanks -A
Apache will always try to maintain an idle pool of processes/threads between Min/MaxSpareServers|Threads, so it will create or kill processes/threads in order to achieve that. Assuming you have not hit MaxClients and Apache needs to create more process/threads to handle the load, yes, it will do do. As things slow down it will also kill off idle threads/processes to maintain the correct size idle pool. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
