That would seem pointless.. Why keep children around (consuming memory) when old ones can be reused once a request is finished when MaxClients is reached? As I understand it, at MaxClients, new requests get queued by the OS, up to the limit set by http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mpm_common.html#listenbacklog I don't run any sites that get that especially busy. Hopefully somebody will correct me if I'm spouting nonsense. -- noodl --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
