In development, I'd like to have changes to my application propagate immediately. "MaxRequestsPerChild 1" restarts each process after a request, but if there are multiple server processes, changes still don't propagate until each process restarts.
I've tried several different directives to limit the number of server processes to 1:
StartServers 1
    MinSpareThreads 1
    MaxSpareThreads 1
    ThreadLimit 1
    ThreadsPerChild 1
    MaxClients 1
    MaxRequestsPerChild 1
Apache still starts with multiple (3) apache2 processes. I'm using the mpm_worker module
