I think it's one at a time. That's why you configure the number you want
running at a time and the number of backup servers, etc. I'd look at
things like Timeout, KeepAlive, MaxKeepAliveRequests, KeepAliveTimeout,
MinSpareServers, MaxSpareServers, StartServers, and MaxClients in
httpd.conf.  I have no idea which are the best to fiddle with for
different types of loads. Apparently this subject has led to some kernel
effort, since there apparently is a mini race condition between all of
the available processes whenever a new connection comes in. This is the
"wake one" idea or something???
