Yup, thousands of little servers with less than 100 httpd children on each is how the biggest web load in the world is handled.
I completely agree and think this is the way to do it. The only point to consider might be KeepAlive which binds processes without using any CPU/IO resources really. Maybe they could just switch off KeepAlive and have only 100 processes running :-)
No one of any real size uses KeepAlive. It's a broken concept as long as idle children consume/require resources. George
