I assume you've gone through and tuned the Apache processes, too.

For example, you'll want to make sure you've done the following:

    - removed any unnecessary Apache modules
    - disabled UserDir, Overrides, and similar settings
    - moved all logging to a separate file system

I'm glad you're running IMP 2.3.  That will allow me to focus on
code with which I'm more familiar. =)
