In /etc/init.d/apache to be exact. 

	case "$1" in
	  start)
	    should_start
	    test_config
	    echo -n "Starting web server: $NAME"
	    $ENV $SSD --start --pidfile $PIDFILE --exec $DAEMON > /dev/null
	    ;;

Somewhere on the last line, I assume. You may have better luck tweaking
the config file. 

In /etc/apache/httpd.conf

Set: 

	StartServers         
	MinSpareServers      
	MaxSpareServers      
	MaxClients           
	MaxRequestsPerChild  

To relatively low numbers.

Geoff.
