in thread 'A' web server takes another "time out"

Thanks for the pointer.

It looks like I'd need read access to /usr/pair/apache/... in order to check that but I don't have it. An older copy of httpd.conf that I requested (before the upgrade) had MaxClients set to 100. I'll have to ask for a new copy...

    If PerlMonks is running under mod_perl you should able to use the Apache API to examine the current setting. You might even be able to dynamically change it!

      If someone wants to take the time to be quite specific about how to check and/or set things like MaxClients and RLimitNPROC from mod_perl (or such), then I'll try them out. I did some looking but didn't come close to an answer in the short time I was able to devote to the search.

      Update: Corion reports looking into this and finding nothing useful for Apache1 (or at least that works on our web server).
