Well it would be 10 for each database. Since as has been pointed out before
loading the database is most of the delay.
If that's enough why not just run 10 apache processes instead of 100?
I'm assuming the static non-database driven content is already separated onto
other servers. In which case running 100 apache processes, most of which are
idle is the source of the problem.
