So that is an extra 5 seconds on a graceful restart - apache will read the config once, throw it away, and then read it again, so it has to read those 20,000 files twice. 5 seconds not serving requests is not ideal. Probably best to avoid that cost if you can. You could use a pre-processor to assemble the config files into one file, but that has the downside of complicating the whole process.
