This usually happens a few minutes after restarting apache:

httpd daemons are up, but are not reading the requests from the sockets. The web clients just wait forever on the connection.

When I run netstat, the Recv-Qs are showing a positive byte count which does not change. So basically the connection between the client and apache is in the CONNECTED state but no progress is made.

Restarting apache solves the problem for a couple of minutes, but then it's deja vu all over again.

Other servers (sshd, ftpd, etc) are fine.

Where should I look further? Any clue? Thanks!
