server.max-worker option

server.max-worker

number of worker processes to spawn. This is usually only needed on servers which are fairly loaded and the network handler calls delay often (e.g. new requests are not handled instantaneously).

Default: 0

If you use server.max-worker, the mod_status module will not show the statistics of all the server's children combined. You will see different stats with each request. [wiki:Docs:ModStatus mod_status documentation]
