I haven't tried the delack-timer patch yet, but I'll see if I can load
2.2.15pre7 today. I don't know if this is related or not, but one thing I
found that has made my webservers much more stable was to change apache to
MaxRequestsPerChild 0 so it wouldn't do so much child creation and killing
off. I found that on a moderately loaded server, if I set
MaxRequestsPerChild 1000, the server would lock up completely in a couple
days but with MaxRequestsPerChild 0 the server would be stable for a
couple weeks. Any comments?
