Apache directives:

AcceptThreads - limits the number of threads for accepting socket
connections; others wait in queue.

ThreadsPerChild - limits the number of threads that can serve CGI requests.

I imagine that whether these directives help you or not depends on whether
you have more than one client using the HTTP server at the same time,
whether you're trying to use the directives for debugging programs. In that
case, the directives may not work well.

Is there a good way to throttle, or otherwise limit, requests processed by
a test Apache instance running CGI programs?

Ideally, I'd like my test Apache instances to only process a set number of
concurrent requests, while queuing any additional requests.

TIA
