I'm new to PHP-FPM and I've noticed at random intervals it will seemingly just lock up.

This happens seemingly at random (we could have 50 people on the site per minute or 200)
when it does happen PHP-FPM stops serving requests (by looking above it looks like it can't meet demand)
Even if I restart PHP-FPM it remains locked up for a short period.

Here are my settings
pm.max_children = 2000
pm.start_servers = 20
pm.min_spare_servers = 10
pm.max_spare_servers = 200
pm.max_requests = 500
I have tried these also at
pm.max_children = 2000
pm.start_servers = 20
pm.min_spare_servers = 20
pm.max_spare_servers = 50
pm.max_requests = 500
and a few other combinations but still see the issue.
Server is 32 core, 64GB memory. Using Apache and FastCGI
Thanks

try this:
Note: Used only when pm is set to 'dynamic'
or like this:
anyway you need to use cache.
