Fair enough. I should probably run against httpd 2.2.11 as well.

I could instrument the JVM but is it really worth it?

My JVM is:
java version "1.6.0_13"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_13-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.3-b02, mixed mode, sharing)

I have specified no heap settings, so I'm getting the default for this
mode, which appears to be a 64MiB heap, of which 50MiB has been
allocated. The heap usage appears to float around 60% capacity (32MiB).

I'll publish full hardware specs with a full set of data, but quickly:
1500MHz AMD Athlon 1700+, 1GiB memory, 987997KiB swap, Seagate ST380013A
IDE disk, ext3fs. OS is GNU/Linux kernel 2.6.14. Apache httpd 2.2.10 was
compiled locally using CFLAGS "-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer".
