I am running perlbal in front of apache, yes. perlbal is a complete
lifesaver for me, because my site is high traffic and perlbal takes care of
lingering prowsers and such, to keep the number of my apache processes down.

When I restart apache, I do not restart perlbal. I use perlbal everywhere,
including on my old Fedora server, and it seems to be very stable.

I am afraid that it is hard to reproduce. Since I run ads and such, I cannot
really afford to pause for very long to debug the issue, plus it happens
randomly. My 5 minute restarter saves me from a very big trouble
