Hi,
I recently managed to get the RAM consumption of my server under
control. It had nothing to do with mod_perl ... the culprit was my ISP's
config script loading in *tons* of extra modules conditionally. Three
versions of mod_php + mod_python all helped to contribute to turn the
Apache children into 100 Meg monsters!
So a quick: ps -aux | grep httpd, shows RAM closer to 20M:
root 29354 0.0 1.5 20064 16488 ? S 13:48 0:02 /usr/sbin/httpd -
apache 30549 0.6 1.8 22128 18628 ? S 14:27 0:00 [httpd]
apache 30561 1.2 1.9 23628 20240 ? S 14:27 0:01 [httpd]
apache 30571 0.6 1.8 22056 18572 ? S 14:28 0:00 [httpd]
apache 30578 0.8 1.7 21736 18284 ? S 14:28 0:00 [httpd]
Now I'm wondering how much more RAM I can save? Does anyone have a
really lean and mean mod_perl, Apache configuration ... if so, how big are
your Apache children?
