first sorry for my bad english, i understand everything but its hard to write english on my own.
I dont know where to post this problem, so i hope anybody in here can help me. I got this strange behaviour of httpd crashing on too many connections without leaving any errors in any log-file. After installing ASL the memory usage of every httpd-process raised pretty much, so i checked out /proc/meminfo and i found out, that committed_AS is rediculously high and i am reaching the CommitLimit on high load. So i tuned the CommitLimit a little bit and now i got this:
# cat /proc/meminfo

I would never hit the CommitLimit, but when the server is on high load the committed_AS value raises to 150G and then nobody can connect to my websites but httpd is not crashing and nothing is reported in the logs.
Without any messages in the logs i have no idea what to do to fix the problem.
Can anybody give me advise?
