Ok so you show us conf files and what not but how much more memory is
Apache 2.2 using. You have to understand a lot can impact why Apache
2.2 is using more physical memory. From the way it was compiled, to
the current kernel version and the library files on your server.
Also understand that its the nature of the beast that a newer version
of *any* program will use more memory then the last. I am sure that
Linux 2.6 kernel uses more memory then 2.2, just like Windows Vista
uses more memory then Windows XP or XP compared to 98. Last, please
also consider that both mod_cache and mod_deflate will increase memory
usage.

This conversation isn't going anywhere -- we are obviously talking
past each other. But I am still strongly of the opinion that you are
not interpreting your ps out correctly given the difference between a
multi-threaded model and a multi-process model.
As I said many messages ago, an easy way to avoid the whole problem is
to just measure total FREE memory on the system in the two different
configurations. A utility like "top" is good for this.

Hi,
No i am not measuring memory per process and i am adding all the RSS of the httpd process of particular apache instance to find total memory usage every one sec.
In prefork(No of process will be more than worker) also i am using the same process and i am adding all the RSS of the httpd process of the particular apache instance to find total physical memory usage every one sec
Anyway physical memory in worker should be less the prefork right?

There are many different version of ps on many different operating
systems and we have no details about what you are using.
But it looks to me like you are measuring the memory usage per
process. But with the worker mpm, many different worker threads will
be sharing the same process. So one process in the worker mpm is
equivalent to many processes in the prefork mpm or in apache 1.3.

Hi All,
I am using the below command to monitor the physical memory.
ps -e -o pcpu,vsz,rss,pid,args |grep -v grep | grep "apacheprojectname"
Below is the sample output for the worker module
0.0 34608 32744 25609 /local/home/kumarar3/apache/aws/bin/httpd -f /local/home/kumarar3/apache/aws/co
0.0 4968 2648 25610 /local/home/kumarar3/apache/aws/bin/httpd -f /local/home/kumarar3/apache/aws/co
0.1 35656 4440 26107 /local/home/kumarar3/apache/aws/bin/httpd -f /local/home/kumarar3/apache/aws/co
In this output third column is physical memory usage(RSS) . i am adding all RSS of the httpd process to find the total physical memory usage of httpd process every time.
Any thing wrong in the process of monitoring??

You probably aren't measuring memory usage correctly.
With the worker mpm, many threads are running in the same process.
But whatever tool you are using to display memory usage is probably
showing for each thread the total memory usage for the process.
Try just comparing the available free physical RAM after launching 1.3
versus 2.2 with similar settings.

Re: [users@httpd] Apache 2.2 utilize more physical memory than apache 1.3
Posted by arun kumar <ar...@yahoo.com>.
We are using solaris 8 and i compiled the apache 2.2 using the below option
./configure --prefix=/local/apache/aws --enable-ssl --enable-proxy --enable-proxy-connect --enable-proxy-http --enable-cache --enable-disk-cache --enable-mods-shared=all --with-mpm=worker .
I disable the deflate and cache module also but there is no major difference in physical memory usage.
Memore utilization is nearly 500% difference in apache 2.2 compare to 1.3.
Finally i compiled apache 2.2 with prefork module and found that the physical memory usage is less than apache 1.3
Please let me know why worker module is taking more memory(i reduce startserver,maxclient ,threadperchild but no use.

Ok so you show us conf files and what not but how much more memory is
Apache 2.2 using. You have to understand a lot can impact why Apache
2.2 is using more physical memory. From the way it was compiled, to
the current kernel version and the library files on your server.
Also understand that its the nature of the beast that a newer version
of *any* program will use more memory then the last. I am sure that
Linux 2.6 kernel uses more memory then 2.2, just like Windows Vista
uses more memory then Windows XP or XP compared to 98. Last, please
also consider that both mod_cache and mod_deflate will increase memory
usage.
