I am using Apache 2.0.48 in prefork MPM mode and am not sure how to interpret the stat which shows "accesses this connection/child/slot". What is a "slot" ? The server-status shows 400 slots with most of them being "open slot with no process" and the rest which is less than 30 workers being active. Does it mean at some point in time there were 400 active workers and hence these slots were created? Since the number of accesses/slot against the busy workers is of the order of 40-50k, was wondering if forcing a value of say 10k on MaxRequestsPerChild would help with performace? Most of the connections being handled by this webserver are not persistent. The configuration for the prefork MPM module is as follows: StartServers 5 ServerLimit 700 MinSpareServers 5 MaxSpareServers 10 MaxClients 400 MaxRequestsPerChild 0 Thanks Ramdas --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
