yes.
Apache spawns child processes to do the work.

ouch man that kills the memory

thank you

[Master of Reality]

i dont think it is very much worse on memory than using one process to do connections for everyone. And it is more secure this way.

I have Apache as using 5.1 MB RAM total, which isn't bad at all for a web server.

You can configure the number of children that will be spawned by adjusting the min and max servers in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf. I would say you have something bad wrong to be eating up 81MB of RAM. I have a similar number of httpd processes but are only eating up 6MB.

mine must be taking little, because i only have 32MB of RAM and it runs fast(ish)
