I've asked about this before and never got an answer that solved the
problem. I used to run my server on a dual xeon computer and it was
very memory efficient. I moved to the 64 bit version of of Fedora Core
4 and now it's filling up memory really fast.
Both servers had 4 gigs of ram. And basically the same configuration file using the same modules for both. It is especially bad where perl is involved. Now I have to set MaxRequestsPerChild to no more than 10 to keep ram from filling up. The server is rather busy serving 67 requests per second. If I set MaxRequestsPerChild to 30 - it quickly fills up another gig of ram. Here's some data I saved: On the new server running top it shows *httpd* processes using: virt 201m res 53m shr 11m On the old server the *httpd* process show: virt: 50k res 14m shr 10k That's quite a difference. What can I do to nail this down. Or - is the 64 bit version just broken? Or is the a Dual Core Athlon related problem? I really need to fix this. Sure could use some help on trying to figure out where the problem is. Thanks in advance. |
