That's a pretty-old version, and if you want the bleeding-edge of performance, you should use a modern version. But on the other hand, I don't see any specific reason why upgrading would fix this particular problem.
When shutting down apache i see the error below in the logs othewise when apache is running there is no error. [error] child process 16801 still did not exit, sending a SIGKILL The service httpd status command shows about 5000 process ids when the load is at its peak. Can you give some clue on what other networking logs should i check for?
You should check basic things like physical memory free and processor usage to make sure the server isn't swapping itself to death. And you should check the basic system logs like /var/log/messages, etc. Given that it seems like apache has plenty of capacity to spare (MaxClients 10000 with 5000 active), I'd take a hard look at local OS and networking issues on both your client and server.
