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...

Anything in the logs?
Nope, but I realized that we were hitting the 2GB logfile limit. This still hasn't been fixed? Linux no longer has 2GB file size limits.

The behavior went you hit this limit in Apache 1.3 was a bit different than this behavior in Apache 2.0.
