For a very tight virtual server config I can see the use for nginx, but for a normal server, running just apache, memory is not going to be an issue. There are probably other limits that will affect performance, such as the connection just as you say.
For example I tried running a server with apache + passenger on an ec2 node, bumped up the MaxClients to 1024. I evened out at around 400 simulaneous connections. Maybe it was due to some mysql limit or limits from the placed I sent the load from, but I was consuming around 50% cpu, so there seemed to be some other thing.
