RE: Interchange crashing

Racke:

The RedHat Demo 3 store is still crashing, try it out (demo.akopia.com)
rapidly clicking on "Buy Now" on an item (about 30 times or so) without
letting it return anything, it'll crash.
Goes back up after a few minutes...is someone resetting it?

Whether PreFork is turned on or off, it makes no difference. I've tried both
on our development server.
Here are the global error log entries; I didn't see anything out of the
ordinary:

Anything found in the global error log file ?
Have you PreFork enabled ?
