Unable to connect -- possible Apache2 problem
The logs errors.log, ssl_access.log, access.log don't shed any light as to why this is happening. In fact, I can't see where it fails in the logs.
I thought perhaps that I could decrease MaxClients to 25 for prefork, but this doesn't seem to have any effect.
Does anyone have an idea what's going on?

I assume you're having Apache proxy the request to trac? When you get a connection refused by the client, is there any related log at all in the Apache logs or the trac log? If not, then the blockage would seem to be likely upstream of them and outside of their control.
Just for the heck of it - any chance you have any rate limiting going on in a firewall configuration? Maybe your rapid clicking is exceeding the rate limit and the delay then lets the average rate fall beneath the threshold. Though if so it sounds like you may have some pretty low limits.
If unsure, one test is just to temporarily disable any firewall you may have and see if the behavior changes. I might also test from different client locations in case what you're seeing is client side (some bad or limiting behavior in a local nat box or something).
