This happened to me too, when I'd set the values to high in the StartServers
directives in httpd.conf. I set all the values a bit high initially, but cut
them in half when this problem occurred to me. I never checked how much
juice the httpd processes were using, just noticed the unusually large
amount of java threads in the ps output. Reducing the amount of servers
started and the amount of children started fixed it.
