One thing you could do is check for the MaxClients setting. Run the following commands as root:
1. # grep MaxClients /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
MaxClients output here
2. ps axf|grep httpd|wc -l
Actual clients output here

If that does not seem to work, your load is down and everything else seems to be running fine, you may want to check the size of your logs as they can dramatically decrease your server's performance. To do this, run the following from root:
# cd /usr/local/apache/logs/ or /usr/local/apache/domlogs <-- change your directory to the apache logs directory.
# ll -h <-- Will show the size of your files in that directory.
# rm -dfr /path/to/logs (ex: rm -dfr /usr/local/apache/domlogs/logfilename) <-- Deletes the domlogs file.
Dedicated Semi-Managed Server Review I've been using AYKSolutions for about 2 years now and their support and servers have been great. They assisted me with the transition of all my websites and databases from my old server onto their system with no problem. If I ever need them for support or a change they respond fast and always keep me up to date with the status of my support ticket. I highly recommend using this company especially if you're looking for someone to assist with server management. Best of all their cost is great!
I have been with ayksolutions for around 5 years and have been thoroughly impressed with them. All support tickets are answered within minutes, regardless of the time of day. Prices are very reasonable, especially considering the support and services they provide. They are constantly doing crazy deals for servers as well. If you're looking for someone good and reliable to host with, from shared hosting to dedicated servers, I easily recommend ayksolutions.
AYK provide a very good value product, and always in a professional manner. I have used several hosting companies over the past 17 years. During that time I occasionally needed help with a variety of minor setup issues. Only AYK gave quick and helpful answers. I highly recommend them.
