Description:
------------
FPM configured with the following lines:

[www]
user = www-data
group = www-data
listen = 127.0.0.1:9000
pm = dynamic
pm.max_children = 64
pm.start_servers = 3
pm.min_spare_servers = 2
pm.max_spare_servers = 4

PHP-FPM start with 3 child processes and spawns additional processes every second until their total count become equal to 64. No requests are being send to server.



Expected result:
----------------
Do not spawn additional processes without request to server.

Actual result:
--------------
64 processes created in less than a minute after server start

Absolutely sure that there are no requests. No cron jobs, browser is not running, nginx is not running, other web-servers are not installed.

The only log available is php-fpm log:

Error in description: alpha1 is affected, alpha2 is not. I have reproduced this bug using recently created VPS, can provide you with root access for investigation.
