Hi Joshua, Thanks for your reply. I tried setting the parameters suggested by you. But when I re-run httpd2, I see that it is still creating 3 processes.

Something like: > ServerLimit 1 > StartServer 1 > MaxClients 512 > ThreadsPerChild 512 > MaxSpareThreads 512 > MinSpareThreads 0 mangal ~ -> ps -ef | grep httpd root 15588 1 1 21:04 ? 00:00:00 httpd2 -k restart wwwrun 15589 15588 0 21:04 ? 00:00:00 httpd2 -k restart wwwrun 15590 15588 0 21:04 ? 00:00:00 httpd2 -k restart My server-tuning.conf file looks like the following - # worker MPM <IfModule worker.c> ServerLimit 1 # initial number of server processes to start StartServers 1 # minimum number of worker threads which are kept spare MinSpareThreads 25 # maximum number of worker threads which are kept spare MaxSpareThreads 75 # maximum number of simultaneous client connections MaxClients 25 # constant number of worker threads in each server process ThreadsPerChild 25 # maximum number of requests a server process serves MaxRequestsPerChild 0 </IfModule> Any idea what might be going on? - Praveen
