Hi,

I'm finally looking under the hood of Maddash, lots of nice shiny parts 
under there!

I have the Maddash server, esmond and httpd server running on a stand 
alone system.  Not a particularly beefy system, single CPU, i3-3240 CPU 
@ 3.40GHz, 8G RAM, 10g NIC.

It is doing all it is supposed to do but after a few days of running the 
web page slows and eventually stops.

A systemctl status httpd shows the usual but a ton of these lines:

           ├─ 6456 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
           ├─ 6459 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
           ├─ 7162 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
           └─11315 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND

Like 280+ lines like that!  A restart of httpd clears it up for another 
few days but today it has filled back up twice in just a few hours.  
Something seems to be keeping a http connections open.

It is managing a modest mesh of 13 x13.

Any ideas for fixing this?  (I did play with the # of workers variable 
but it didn't see to have an impact, assuming I in fact was able to 
change that variable.)

Thanks,
Phil
