 Configuration issues or bugs?

I've set the apache confs to use the following

    StartServers         512
    ServerLimit          1024
    MaxClients           1024
    MinSpareServers      256
    MaxSpareServers      512
    MaxRequestsPerChild  100000


I reran the test with a smaller load (350 users as opposed to 1250).  It didn't hit the server limit but I still get this error:

[Wed May 23 07:30:54 2007] [error] (70014)End of file found: ajp_ilink_receive() can't receive header
[Wed May 23 07:30:54 2007] [error] ajp_read_header: ajp_ilink_receive failed
[Wed May 23 07:30:54 2007] [error] (120006)APR does not understand this error code: proxy: read response failed from (null) (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)


Any other suggestions?

Some pointers:

    MaxRequestsPerChild 512
    This means that after an Apache child process handles
    512 requests, it will be killed off (and a replacement will
    need to be forked). With 45+ million request per
    hour, that's a lot of forking.

    Min/MaxSpareServers 512
    You are telling Apache that you want between 512
    and 512 idle Apache processes. If you have more,
    kill them off; less, add more. Can you see the
    issue with this? :)

    (actually, Apache internally tries to handle
     this misconfig by setting Max to 513, but
     still, that's a REAL NARROW BAND)
