This was on a G4 with 500 megs of memory. probably it's the same as on FreeBSD: if you use a DSO mod_perl, for each restart (apachectl graceful or apachectl restart) it eats all the memory your mod_perl modules use. Try to build it statically; at least on FreeBSD it helps, and OSX is FreeBSD ... :-) But my newest test was with Apache 1.3.23 and mod_perl 1.26; perhaps it's fixed in 1.27?!? But nevertheless 4 MB is very small; my frontend Apache 1.3.23 without mod_perl takes 3 MB; my frontend Apache 2.0.36 on developing system >4 MB without mod_perl ...
