Experiencing an intermittent issue with a LAMP application wherein Apache forks to its ServerLimit and grinds to a (near) halt. An strace
on any httpd
process shows numerous, slow epoll_wait
calls.

An lsof
on the same process claims this is an anon_inode
:
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
httpd 9709 apache 14u 0000 0,7 0 373 anon_inode
Any insight as to what that could be, or advice to track down that information?
