Hi All, Need pointers to resolve our production out of memory issues for the Apache 2.2.14 process running on Windows 2003 Server (64bit) with 16 GB memory. This apache instance is used to load balance requests between 5 Apache Tomcat 6 instances. After running for a week, the apache server memory grows to about 2GB and then it hangs and no longer processes requests. Attached is the httpd.conf file used. Please review it for any possible misconfiguration.
Currently searching on the web, we have identified following possible fixes: 1) Set the "MaxMemFree" directive to 128 instead of the default 0 (unlimited). 2) Set the "MaxRequestsPerChild" directive to low value (1000) instead of the default. Is the default "0" (unlimited) or 10000? There seem to be conflicting values mentioned on the net. 3) Set the KeepAlive directive to off. This will result add to the latency though. Any troubleshooting suggestions to resolve the memory leak would be really appreciated.
