Hello!

Apache has been randomly crashing (for a few months now) and I cannot seem
to understand why. I cannot replicate the crash even when hitting the server
with 4,000 requests @ a concurrency of 500. This is a production server and
I am willing to compensate someone for their efforts resolving this. Below
is a sample of one, of the many, error messages:

[Fri Sep 21 11:27:24 2018] [mpm_event:alert] (11)Resource temporarily
unavailable: AH03104: apr_thread_create: unable to create worker thread

Below is more information that might be useful:

Apache information
Server Version: Apache/2.4.34 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.0.2l
Server MPM: event
**All MPM event settings are default.**
 
Should I enable some type of core dump settings? I do have the scoreboard
enabled (mod_status) and if it helps at all, this is where the error is
being triggered:
https://github.com/apache/httpd/blob/571b20fb11ae3eb1498b2e279423b2d53eda7e4
b/server/mpm/event/event.c#L2620

Thank you so much in advance!
