I'd suggest giving them 0. This will prevent to initiate those
functionalities which the directives are related.

Also you hve child_life_time being 300. I don't expect this is related
but could you set it to 0 and see anything gest changed for just in
case?

Ok.

Another possibility is, pgpool child process is dying for unknown
reason. Do you see anything bad (for example child dies segfault) in
the pgpool log?
