Hmmmm I had to read the documentation again my self and I can't find any mention of what type of MPM is supported in this case. All it says is "Apache will never create more than the Hard Maximum connections to the backend server" so it makes me expect that max parameter should be in force no matter what MPM is in use. But having in mind Eric's comment looks like this is not communicated across different processes and since every thread is a new process in MPM prefork the max setting will fail.
What version of apache do you use? If it is apache2 would it be too much trouble for you to recompile with MPM worker instead prefork?
