>Description:
High traffic webserver. NMBCLUSTERS is set to 32k. 2G's of memory. 2 PIII 1ghz cpu's. Stripped down kernel. 4 gigs of swap space. Some NFS drives mounted, they are not serving content to apache. 

I have other webservers that have MAXCLIENTS in apache set to 2048 and the load is at < 4. I don't know if this is an issue with 4.4-RELEASE, but some people at apache, and on IRC, told me it's my operating system.

Here's some system stats:

3:14PM  up  3:10, 1 user, load averages: 30.17, 31.15, 24.49

bash-2.05$ ps aux |grep -c httpd
