First a little speculation, I see the same problems on my RedHat 8.0 box
as well, although nobody else is reporting these issues. Perhaps its a
RedHat 8.0 problem?

When I attach to the httpd process that has the most memory allocated or
the second most (typically 2 processes are way above the rest), and do a
"thread apply all bt", I see most functions are waiting for something to
do while 2 or 3 are stuck in libdb somwhere, usually in __SELECT or
something. Are you seeing the same thing?
