  12     <p>This Multi-Processing Module (MPM) implements an exclusively
  13     threaded web server that has been optimized for Novell
  14     NetWare.</p>
  15
  16     <p>The main thread is responsible for launching child
  17     worker threads which listen for connections and serve them when they
  18     arrive. Apache always tries to maintain several <em>spare</em>
  19     or idle worker threads, which stand ready to serve incoming
  20     requests. In this way, clients do not need to wait for a new
  21     child threads to be spawned before their requests can be
  22     served.</p>
  23
  24     <p>The <code>StartThreads</code>, <code>MinSpareThreads</code>,
  25     <code>MaxSpareThreads</code>, and <code>MaxThreads</code>
  26     regulate how the main thread creates worker threads to serve
  27     requests. In general, Apache is very self-regulating, so most
  28     sites do not need to adjust these directives from their default
  29     values. Sites which need to serve more than 250 simultaneous
  30     requests may need to increase <code>MaxThreads</code>, while
  31     sites with limited memory may need to decrease
  32     <code>MaxThreads</code> to keep the server from thrashing (spawning and
  33     terminating idle threads). More information about
  34     tuning process creation is provided in the <a href="../misc/perf-tuning.html">performance hints</a>
  35     documentation.</p>
  36
  37     <p><code>MaxRequestsPerChild</code> controls how frequently the
  38     server recycles processes by killing old ones and launching new
  39     ones.  On the NetWare OS it is highly recommended that this directive
  40     remain set to 0.  This allows worker threads to continue servicing
  41     requests indefinitely.</p>
