Hi,
 How is the memory handled in Apache.I see the daemon process launched by
Apache, as it runs for a long time both its SZ and RSS increases over the

care of it?I have kept the MaxRequestPerChild as 0.Looking forward for
response.

I don't believe there are any known memory leaks in apache httpd. But
it wouldn't be unusual for memory usage to increase somewhat over time
since some requests require more memory than others and it is usually
impossible to return memory to the OS. It shouldn't continue to rise
indefinitely. Memory leaks might be present in some module that you
using with apache.

You can, of course, recycle processes occasionally by setting
MaxRequestsPerChild to some not-too-small number.

Other than that, I'm not sure what question you are really asking.
