I have just committed changes to pgpool-en.html on CVS HEAD,
especially about num_init_children. Of course more enhancement are
always welcome.

pgpool_status is not a log file, rather to record backend status. I
personally use following setting to log:

pgpool -n -f ....|/usr/local/apache2/bin/rotatelogs -l -f /var/log/pgpool/pgpool.log.%A 86400
