The Apache 2.4 documentation still notes:

The improved connection handling may not work for certain connection filters 
that have declared themselves as incompatible with event. In these cases, this 
MPM will fall back to the behaviour of the worker MPM and reserve one worker 
thread per connection. All modules shipped with the server are compatible with 
the event MPM.

A similar restriction is currently present for requests involving an output 
filter that needs to read and/or modify the whole response body, like for 
example mod_ssl, mod_deflate, or mod_include. If the connection to the client 
blocks while the filter is processing the data, and the amount of data produced 
by the filter is too big to be buffered in memory, the thread used for the 
request is not freed while httpd waits until the pending data is sent to the 
client.
