Optimizing apache 2

Hi,

I'm on a VPS - Fedora 12, 500 MB RAM.

It is running PHP 5.3.1 (via mod_fastcgi), Apache 2.2.14, MySQL 5.4.1

I'd like to know some tweaks in the configuration of apache so that the
performance is optimum.

I'm using worker MPM and this is the configuration of the MPM-

StartServers 8
MaxClients 512
MinSpareThreads 5
MaxSpareThreads 10
ThreadsPerChild 64
MaxRequestsPerChild 0

Can apache handle the above ? Or I can increase it further ?

How long is a piece of string? The only way to establish whether that
is correct is to add sample data to your applications, and load test
it.
