Hello !
I have a strange problem. Apache is taking more and more memory as it run.
The scheme is simple: one visitor comes in, the memory grow a little.
He quits and the memory didn't go down. Another one is coming and the used memory grows... and so on.
Until the memory is satured.
I've tried to tweak the MaxThreadsPerChild and so on without result.

My server is a XP Pro SP2 with a 2Ghz Intel CPU, 512 Mb RAM.
Apache is the 2.2.0 version with PHP 5.1.2, MySQL 5.0.21.

512 Mb RAM is not much when you are running Apache with php and Mysql. Special php is allocating memory. We are running with 2Gb memory and when Apache starts it consumes about 20 Mb and it grows in time to about 250 Mb and stays on that value.

My website isn't as big Smile
We "just" have 15.000 to 18.000 visits per month.
Fortunatly i've reinstalled Apache 2.2.2 and the problem is gone. The memory usage remains stable about 35-40 Mb.
I have absolutely no idea why it suddenly becomes good. I've spend 2 weeks on this and it was resolve in 5 minutes....

If all is good I should have a real server in the near future... Smile
