Yann,

I did some additionnal tests with the BalancerInherit directive. If I add
the directive "BalancerInherit Off" in the main section I still have the
issue (shm saturation) if the number of virtual hosts/balancers is too
important. With a single virtual host then I can access correctly to the
application whereas I shouldn't be able to ... In other words, the
directive seems to have no effect. Anyway if it worked correctly i couldn't
have accessed to my application anymore, so i guess it doesn't deserve to
spend more time on this question.

I also did some test with the balancer definition inside the virtual host :
I confirm that this configuration is ok. Unfortunately for me, this choice
introduces significant change on my apache 2.2 configuration and adds a lot
of complexity in my migration process. I also lose some functionnality like
an global overview of my balancer states via a single URL.

So before considering this option, as far as you know, do you think there
is definitely no other options available.

Regards.
Sylvain
