Its easy to know if apache httpd MaxClients value needs to be increased.
If MaxClients limit is reached by httpd it will create an error in error logs like
"[Sun Jul 29 12:00:31 2012] [error] server reached MaxClients setting, consider raising the MaxClients setting"
This error in the error.log clearly indiactes that you should try to see if you can increase the value of Max Clients. Dont just bluntly increase it if you dont have enough ram for apache process.
