Re: [us...@httpd] Memory / Process leak

2009-11-24 Thread Peter N Lewis
Clearly, no one has any particularly helpful suggestions on what to do differently. Apache, even under relatively light load, swallowed up 700+MB over two days. So the only path forward I can see is to restart apache fairly regularly and delve in to switching to nginx. Thanks to those of you w
