By "totally dried up" do you mean is the host getting fewer requests?
This machine gets about 20-30 requests per hour usually.

Okay, I added this to httpd.conf:

        <Location /server-status>
            SetHandler server-status
            Order Deny,Allow
            Deny from all
            Allow from 127.0.0.1
        </Location>
        ExtendedStatus on

and restarted httpd.

As per out-of-the-box httpd.conf, I have:

        <IfModule prefork.c>
            StartServers          5
            MinSpareServers       5
            MaxSpareServers      10
            MaxClients          150
            MaxRequestsPerChild   0
        </IfModule>

Exactly.

Okay, now I'll wait till Sunday evening or the next occurence, whichever
is first, in order to try to get the info you requested into the bug
report at the same time.
