<p>This Multi-Processing Module (MPM) implements an exclusively
threaded web server that has been optimized for Novell
NetWare.</p>
<p>The main thread is responsible for launching child
worker threads which listen for connections and serve them when they
arrive. Apache always tries to maintain several <em>spare</em>
or idle worker threads, which stand ready to serve incoming
requests. In this way, clients do not need to wait for a new
child threads to be spawned before their requests can be
served.</p>
<p>The <code>StartThreads</code>, <code>MinSpareThreads</code>,
<code>MaxSpareThreads</code>, and <code>MaxThreads</code>
regulate how the main thread creates worker threads to serve
requests. In general, Apache is very self-regulating, so most
sites do not need to adjust these directives from their default
values. Sites which need to serve more than 250 simultaneous
requests may need to increase <code>MaxThreads</code>, while
sites with limited memory may need to decrease
<code>MaxThreads</code> to keep the server from thrashing (spawning and
terminating idle threads). More information about
tuning process creation is provided in the <a href="../misc/perf-tuning.html">performance hints</a>
documentation.</p>
<p><code>MaxRequestsPerChild</code> controls how frequently the
server recycles processes by killing old ones and launching new
ones.<2E> On the NetWare OS it is highly recommended that this directive
remain set to 0.<2E> This allows worker threads to continue servicing
requests indefinitely.</p>

ports Apache uses</a>.</p>

<p>This directive tells the server what stack size to use for
each of the running threads. If you ever get a stack overflow
you will need to bump this number to a higher setting.</p>
