Hi Daniel,
Unfortunately, the Apache I'm working with is part of a product, so I won't be
able to change to a different MPM type.
I've been trying what you suggested (increasing MinSpareServers) but I still
get tons of connections refused, even when I can confirm that, for example, I
get 500+ httpd instances at startup (e.g., ps -ef shows 500 instances). Is it
possible that something else (e.g., the Redhat OS itself) is limiting the
number of connections?
Thanks,Jim

migrate to worker or event...if you have to stick with prefork mpm, increase
the number of MinSpareServers to a very high number, prefork is very slow
spawning new children since it is not threaded, so better spawn most when
apache starts.

Hi,
I am trying to do some load testing of Apache 2.4 on Redhat.
Configuration displayed when I run "httpd -V" shows:
Server MPM: prefork
threaded: no
forked: yes (variable process count)
I am using Jmeter to test, and when I increase the number of simultaneous
threads to > 200, I am seeing increasing number of errors, with a lot of
"connection refused" errors, e.g.:

I've been trying to re-configure the Apache to avoid these errors, e.g.,
increasing "MaxClients", and I've also increased the amount of memory for the
machine (to 4GB) but so far, nothing I have done has improved the situation.
Is there something else that I can do to try to get the Apache so that it can
accept the larger number of connections?
Thanks,
Jim
