Here's a few things to look at:
 - What does server-status show in general?  How many requests are
   served per child?  Maybe you need to set MaxRequestsPerChild.
 - If you have 'top', what does that show
 - Can you set MaxClients to a point where it will not hang?
 - How is system memory?  Do you have enough?
 - Are you swapping?
 - You might want to set-up some data collection with vmstat,
   mpstat, iostat.
