Hi,
1. Unfortunately, our website depend heavily on PHP to operate, so it not possible for us to disable it. We also highly suspect that the crash is related to one of our php module because we are running a lot of Joomla component.
2. unfortunately, we are unable to track which module is causing this issue. Any idea how we can check which script is causing the problem because this has been going on for weeks and we are still unable to determine the source.
3. Kindly advise how we can perform the migration of our existing codebase to FastCGI/SCGI without breaking the current website?

run PHP out of process, eg using fastcgi or scgi (can PHP talk SCGI?).
For my money, the double free()s are coming from PHP or a PHP module.
