ServerLimit and MaxClients are relatively light weight (per instance).
You need to do some math here, and it depends on your resources. The
math isn't super simple. There's a static amount of cache memory you can
calculate for each instance. Google and see what folks say about it.
When you max out this number, you get no more instances - no more
connections until you have more available. When you hit this ceiling
it's a hard ceiling, the end viewer gets a failure to connect error. So,
whatever you do you'll want to make sure you have more resources than
visitors. An inefficient application can waste instances and keep their
tied up for longer periods of time. People serving simple website page
views seldom have a problem.
Like I said, the math here is more complex than ServerLimit/MaxClients *
X = Y.

Hiya
What is the consequences of an overly increased ServerLimit and
MaxClients. And to add to this puzzle. What if the number of apache
process reach that limit.
Kind Regards
