Figured it out - declaring the location of the scoreboard file in httpd.conf creates it there.
Getting a segfault with httpd 2.2.24/5.14.2, will get a coredump and backtrace and report back. Guessing that the most performant means of using this scoreboard would be to put it on a ram based tempdisk. I'm trying to query the scoreboard per request, so that if my server hits MaxChildren I can turn request based profiling to determine where requests are spending their time. Seems easier than trying to replicate the slowness issues I'm seeing with load testing.
