I'm thinking of the situation where you have 1 parent, 4 children.
all 4 children hit max-requests and exit before the first replacement

process using bdb in any way ) wouldn't that memory be released back
to the system , and a new memory space be started on the spawn?

Sure, but if all your children exit at once, BerkeleyDB cache is the
least of your worries.  It will never happen.  And even in this case,
when they all respawn and create a new segment, there will be no loss
of data.  The worst case is that the cache is cleared.
