Can anyone explain me how exactly prefork works? StartServers 2 MaxClients 150 MinSpareThreads 25 MaxSpareThreads 75 ThreadsPerChild 25 ServerLimit 16 I think I got confused between the terms - server, process and thread. If prefork is a single thread process, what does that ThreadsPerChild mean for prefork? Lets say, I wan't to support 250 active sessions logged into my site, what would be a tentative settings to meet the load? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-does-Prefork-work--tp23754946p23754946.html Sent from the Apache HTTP Server - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
