i have 4 cpus in my server, and i have read before that when the number found in the 15 minutes period exceeds the total number of cpus so there is a load on the server ..

Note that i have daily more than 450,000 visits and this top result was taken with almost 10,000 visits ,,..

AND when the site accepts the 450,000 visits the connection is interrupted and my apache becomes down foer a short time so what is the soln of that load and is the httpd.conf configuration can play a role here , if so please tell me the best?

############
http.conf

timeout 60

and all of these (MinSpareServers,MaxSpareServers,StartServers,MaxClients,MaxRequestsPerChild,KeepAlive,KeepAliveTime out,MaxKeepAliveRequests) parameters are not foundin my httpd.conf, so is that normal ??
############
my.cnf

interactive_timeout=10
wait_timeout=20
connect_timeout=10
max_user_connections=10
max_connections=500
###########

Thanks for all,...and waiting your help ..

git-instaweb

GIT-INSTAWEB(1) 						    Git Manual							   GIT-INSTAWEB(1)

NAME

       git-instaweb - Instantly browse your working repository in gitweb

SYNOPSIS

       git instaweb [--local] [--httpd=<httpd>] [--port=<port>]
		      [--browser=<browser>]
       git instaweb [--start] [--stop] [--restart]

DESCRIPTION

       A simple script to set up gitweb and a web server for browsing the local repository.

OPTIONS

       -l, --local
	   Only bind the web server to the local IP (127.0.0.1).

       -d, --httpd
	   The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed. Command-line options may be specified here, and the configuration file will be
	   added at the end of the command-line. Currently apache2, lighttpd, mongoose, plackup and webrick are supported. (Default: lighttpd)

       -m, --module-path
	   The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache). (Default: /usr/lib/apache2/modules)

       -p, --port
	   The port number to bind the httpd to. (Default: 1234)

       -b, --browser
	   The web browser that should be used to view the gitweb page. This will be passed to the git web--browse helper script along with the
	   URL of the gitweb instance. See git-web--browse(1) for more information about this. If the script fails, the URL will be printed to
	   stdout.

       start, --start
	   Start the httpd instance and exit. Regenerate configuration files as necessary for spawning a new instance.

       stop, --stop
	   Stop the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance, nor does it close
	   the browser.

       restart, --restart
	   Restart the httpd instance and exit. Regenerate configuration files as necessary for spawning a new instance.

CONFIGURATION

       You may specify configuration in your .git/config

	   [instaweb]
		   local = true
		   httpd = apache2 -f
		   port = 4321
		   browser = konqueror
		   modulepath = /usr/lib/apache2/modules

       If the configuration variable instaweb.browser is not set, web.browser will be used instead if it is defined. See git-web--browse(1) for
       more information about this.
