/*klaus is nitpicking*/
with children you set the number of processes per UDP listening socket
with tcp_children you set the number of processes for TCP/TLS handling

e.g.
listen=udp:1.2.3.4:5060
listen=udp:1.2.3.4:5070
listen=udp:5.6.7.8:5060

listen=tcp:1.2.3.4:5060
listen=tcp:1.2.3.4:5070
listen=tcp:5.6.7.8:5060
listen=tls:1.2.3.4:5061
listen=tls:1.2.3.4:5071
listen=tls:5.6.7.8:5061

children=10
tcp_children = 10

==> 3x10 + 10 = 40 worker processes

easy to analyze using "kamctl ps"
