What JK version do you use? To quote Mladen: "You are probably using prefork mpm, so there is no way to control the number of connections to Tomcat in any way, trough mod_jk. You can limit it only by setting MaxClients in the httpd.conf to the maximum number desired. Because of pre-forking mechanism each child process will eventually establish a single connection to Tomcat, thus the number of connections will rise from StartServers to MaxClients.
So there are two solutions for prefork. 1. Make maxThreads==MaxClients 2. Add connectionTimeout="20000" to AJP connector."
