I have made some progress and am now seeing 15.8M shared out of 16.7M on the parent. I believe that the problem was that I was doing a graceful restart which wasn't restarting the parent process. Now I have a different problem. When I initially start apache, everything is OK, but when the child processes die (due to MaxRequestsPerChild or me killing them) , the new child doesn't have a database connection and I'm getting "Internal Server Error." I suspect I can sort that mess out after a bit more troubleshooting. Thanks again! Bob Foster
