Add default Apache process recycling
I recommend setting a default value for MaxConnectionsPerChild (e.g., 1000) to help manage memory usage automatically. Recycling Apache processes after serving a set number of requests prevents memory bloat and helps maintain steady site performance, especially during high traffic periods.
Why this matters:
Enhanced memory efficiency: Recycling processes keeps memory usage stable, preventing memory bloat.
Improved site performance: Prevents slowdowns caused by excessive memory use during traffic spikes.
Currently it's not set.

Great suggestion! Setting a default value for MaxConnectionsPerChild is definitely a smart way to manage memory and improve site performance. This type of proactive maintenance can make a big difference, especially when handling high traffic. On a similar note, websites that rely on consistent service, like Packaging NYC, also focus on efficient processes such as using tissue paper https://packagingnyc.com/shop/tissue-paper/ to protect products during shipment while maintaining quality and presentation.
