Hi Apache experts,
This is my first post to an Apache group, so please bear with me. I am
also new to Apache in general.
My understanding is that under windows, there should be only 2 httpd
processes once I start my Apache server (version 2.2). One parent and one
child. The child then spawns multiple threads to handle incoming requests.
However, I have seen cases where I had up to 8 or so httpd processes
showing in Windows Task Manager.
Are 7 a child of the same parent httpd.exe process?
If you have MaxRequestsPerChild set to non-zero, you can have multiple
children even on Windows, while older processes finish serving lengthy
requests.
I have been using an Apache module acting as server (written in Delphi) to
service request from devices.
Its always possible that third-party modules create their own child
processes.
mod_status might show helpful information, but ISTR that httpd 2.2 on
Windows doesn't show the various process ids when there's more than one
child. I'm not sure.
Much appreciated
