Hi,
I hope this isn't answered somewhere else yet - tried to do a quick search but to no avail.
I have a VMware ESX VM with 768 MB ram. Running ispCP 1.0.5 OMEGA build: 20100331 Codename: Priamos. The server is operating 16 extremely low-traffic domains but I need to scale the system as my client base grows.
Code:
leskinensolutions:~# cat /etc/debian_version
5.0.6
The problem is that php5-cgi processes are consuming close 200mb each, providing apparent problems running this server.
If I use php as apache2 module there are no ram-related problems aside the apparent non-usermode issues.
I've tried prefork and worker mpm modules to no avail.
I'm currently running apache2-mpm-worker.
Code:
leskinensolutions:~# ps aux | grep php5-cgi | wc -l
7
Code:
leskinensolutions:~# ps aux | grep apache2 | wc -l
6

Since there seems to be a lot of ram in cache, is there something to be alarmed of? To me the php5-cgi ~198mb ram usage seems bit odd.
Anything I could do/check to ensure the ram usage is OK?
Thanks!
