There are other tweaks you can do like disable htaccess lookups, disable logging allow persistent mysql connections (mysql_pconnect()). I actually boosted my MaxRequestsPerChild from 100 to 10000. It was running quite well but today it's using up a lot of swap. 1000 might be a good number.</p> My website traffic is very bursty, so i found a good tweak was to set minspareservers and maxspareservers to 32 and 64 respectively.
