How many requests/sec are done? If these bots are running fast then this might be fine depending on your application.
How much of the CPU time is iowait? Try the tricks listed here if you want better performance ( especially Loader() )...
http://apache-asp.org/tuning.html
Also your CPUs are a little slow by current standards. Check out http://chamas.com/bench/ from some old numbers on execution speed for a certain system.

Hi all, we have developed an Apache web aplication. We started testing and we are
very disapointed with CPU Performance. Could anybody help us?
The characteristics of testing probes are following:
Host configuration: 2 CPU 800Mhz. Mem: 4Gbytes OS: Linux 2.4.18-24.7.xsmp #1 SMP i686 unknown Apache 1.3.27 mod_perl: 1.27 Apache::ASP: 2.49
Apache configuration:
Timeout 300
KeepAlive Off
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
MinSpareServers 30
MaxSpareServers 30
StartServers 30
MaxClients 30
MaxRequestsPerChild 0 (this parameter is set to 0, only for testing's saking)
Test Configuration: 30 concurrent users, doing a simple web navigation. 10 minutes
During test, we have monitorized CPU, mem, and traces of every Apache process, and get the
following results.
CPU0 Idle Average: 12.96%
CPU0 System Average: 36.13%
CPU1 Idle Average: 13.48%
CPU1 System Average: 38.08%
load average: 3.82
The memory comsumption is not problem.
With strace command, we have monitorized every Apache process. The result is shown next:

żIs it normal the amount of CPU consumption for such a so simple test case (just 4 pages are navigated for each user's session)?
Thanks in advanced,
best regards.
