Hello Perrin, Umm, maybe we are talking about different things. If I run my application with 500+ httpd's in the process list using prefork, it uses a lot more memory than running 10 httpds with 64 threads each using worker. It also gets worse over time (as shared pages get altered). Did I miss something or did I do something wrong? > - Perrin -- Richard F. Rebel [EMAIL PROTECTED] t. 212.239.0000
