About 30 minutes ago web server (fairly heavy traffic site) stopped
responding. This is Red Hat 8.0 fully updated. Here is the output of
"ps ax".

Then a few minutes ago after about 25 minutes of downtime Apache seemed
to recover on its own, all the zombie processes are gone and things
appear to be normal.
Perplexing...
