[Bug 575175] Re: apache running at 100% indefinitely

[Geoff Silver]

Is there something specific you want?

1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter
the problem,

This is a web server.  It started apache on boot for me when I rebooted
the host a week ago.  It ran for a week or so.  I logged in after being
out of town for the weekend and I had 6-7 apache processes running at
100% CPU, but apparently doing nothing (netstat -anop showed no
connections, strace showed nothing happening, etc).  There is no
specific step or action I took to cause this.  Presumably some external
user accessed some web page which triggered what appears to be a bug in
the zend library (based on the fact that this is a webserver and the gdb
backtrace of the running process I supplied)

2. the behavior you expected, and

I expect apache to not use 100% of all my CPUs!

3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as
possible).

I expect apache to not run at 100% CPU.  I logged in after being out of
town for the weekend and I had 6-7 apache processes running at 100% CPU,
but apparently doing nothing (netstat -anop showed no connections,
strace showed nothing happening, etc).
