Take a look at the min. spare servers, max spare servers, and num. servers to 
start.  I keep these numbers low (10/10/10) to avoid old httpd processes. 
Theory is that a new connection gets a new, or not as old of an httpd server.  
My servers are not normal so YMMV. There is a lot of voodoo in deployments 
settings...

I can second Chuck's experience with Apache 1.3.
