I don't know what's normal for other people, but with a personal Mason-driven site with only a few hundred visitors a day I get this: PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 5661 www-data 9 0 15232 14M 9988 S 0.0 2.3 0:01 apache 2517 www-data 9 0 14256 13M 9984 S 0.0 2.1 0:01 apache 2518 www-data 9 0 14124 13M 9968 S 0.0 2.1 0:01 apache 2519 www-data 9 0 14076 13M 9968 S 0.0 2.1 0:01 apache 16638 www-data 9 0 14024 13M 9964 S 0.0 2.1 0:01 apache 26290 www-data 9 0 13948 13M 9948 S 0.0 2.1 0:00 apache 26289 www-data 11 0 13852 13M 9960 S 0.5 2.0 0:01 apache 2520 www-data 9 0 13816 13M 9816 S 0.0 2.0 0:01 apache 26288 www-data 9 0 13812 13M 9960 S 0.0 2.0 0:01 apache 18348 www-data 9 0 12692 12M 9904 S 0.0 1.9 0:01 apache 2996 root 9 0 12156 11M 10420 S 0.0 1.8 0:57 apache Linux 2.4.19 x86 SMP with 600 megs of RAM.

Re: ANNOUNCE: the new perl.apache.org is alive now!
I hate to be a party pooper, but I single handedly brute upgraded www.wired.com from Vignette Storyserver 5.0 to V/6 this month - it's not mod_perl. The new page is incorrect. I do the "ServerTokens Min" thing to hide what modules we run. If the authors of the page want to ask me about different mod_perl stuff we do at Wired/Lycos feel free to contact me off list. We have some cool stuff. -- "Never trust a computer you can't throw out a window." -Steve Wozniak
choice of mod_perl technology for news site
Lets pretend I work for Wired News, and I really really hate Vignette's content management system. I mean *really* hate it. I'm the Ops guy supporting it and I have nightmares about the next unexplained CMS crash. Ok, we all know mod_perl is the right choice to replace their system, but what is the right way to go when you have a full news staff with many stories going out six days a week, and about a million hits a day? You need all the workflow tools for the news staff, versioning, stories going live at defined times and dates, etc, etc. I don't have the exact requirements, as I'm just trying to collect my thoughts right now, to bring my ideas to the software guys in a couple days. I can get the exact requirements if needed. I like Mason's way of doing things, and it works for salon.com (similar needs), but now that we have AxKit, is that the right way to go? Seems better to force the separation of content and display, and using XML allows the stories to be easily shared for display on affiliated sites. Thoughts? I'm thinking of even donating my mediocre coding skills if they take my advice on this - die Vignette!! I'll do my part to slay the evil beast. Oh, I mean if this wasn't all hypothetical - I wouldn't discuss internal issues like this with the general public ;) -- Nate "Usenet isn't a right.
