76    <p>The <code class="directive">MaxRequestsPerThread</code> directive sets
77    the limit on the number of requests that an individual server thread
78    will handle. After <code class="directive">MaxRequestsPerThread</code>
79    requests, the thread will die. If <code class="directive">MaxRequestsPerThread</code> is <code>0</code>, then the thread
80    will never expire.</p>
81
82    <p>Setting <code class="directive">MaxRequestsPerThread</code> to a
83    non-zero limit has two beneficial effects:</p>
84
85    <ul>
86      <li>it limits the amount of memory that a thread can consume
87      by (accidental) memory leakage;</li>
88
89      <li>by giving threads a finite lifetime, it helps reduce
90      the number of threads when the server load reduces.</li>
91    </ul>
92
93    <div class="note"><h3>Note:</h3>
94      <p>For <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#keepalive">KeepAlive</a></code> requests, only
95      the first request is counted towards this limit. In effect, it
96      changes the behavior to limit the number of <em>connections</em>
97      per thread.</p>
