[users@httpd] Apache 2 child spawn issue

I am getting this message when I run a perl program.
    *Resource temporarily unavailable: couldn't create child process:*

I am including my config file parameters:-

##
## Server-Pool Size Regulation (MPM specific)
##

<IfModule prefork.c>
StartServers         5
MinSpareServers      5
MaxSpareServers     10
MaxClients         256
MaxRequestsPerChild  10000
</IfModule>

# worker MPM
<IfModule worker.c>
ServerLimit        16
StartServers         3
MaxClients         256
MinSpareThreads     75
MaxSpareThreads     250
ThreadsPerChild     25
MaxRequestsPerChild  10000
</IfModule>

# perchild MPM
<IfModule perchild.c>
NumServers           5
StartThreads         5
MinSpareThreads      5
MaxSpareThreads     10
MaxThreadsPerChild  64
MaxRequestsPerChild  0
</IfModule>

If anyone can see what I am doing wrong please let me know.
My workaround for now is to restart the Apache server.
