What is the difference between PIDcheck and ChildLife? It sounds like they do the same thing, unless a PID and child aren't the same thing.Will setting one or both of these directives interrupt a job's execution?
PIDcheck says that the housekeeping routine should look for out-of-control or dead Interchange child processes and kill them if they've been running more than that many seconds:
http://www.icdevgroup.org/docs/confs/PIDcheck.htmlChildLife limits how long a child is allowed to live, primarily for PreFork mode persistent children. For example, you may want to say that a child can only live for 10 minutes total, regardless of whether it's met its MaxRequestsPerChild limit yet:
http://www.icdevgroup.org/docs/confs/ChildLife.htmlMost likely you do not need ChildLife, but you should almost always have PIDcheck set to a couple of minutes, so you don't have runaway child processes going longer than that.
