Hello, I thought there was an apache mailing list, but the mailing list page points to this one(as well as php and some others.)
So hopefully I will not get flamed for this question. I have a rh9 box with apache 2 and tomcat 5 The apache server gets about 1.2M hits a day on average i have about 110 httpd running when i do a ps -ef | grep httpd | wc -l, but on Monday mornings my busiest I have around 225 httpd running I am trying to determine what are the best setting for my prefork MPM settings. I am getting conflicting suggestions on MaxClients on the RH pages it says:: "However, it is not recommended that the value for MaxClients exceeds 256 when using the prefork MPM. " BUT on other pages is says that on busy sites i should have MaxClients 512 and ServerLimit set to 1024 Not sure if my server is considered busy. I am tending to think yes. these are my current settings: <IfModule prefork.c> StartServers 5 MinSpareServers 5 MaxSpareServers 10 ServerLimit 400 MaxClients 400 MaxRequestsPerChild 0 </IfModule> Thanks for any suggestions --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
