[users@httpd] HTTPD's still eating up all RAM.

Hello all,

I'm still having trouble with my httpd eating up all RAM. 8 days ago RAM
usage was at 90MB. httpd was 7-8MB each. Please see yourself how it changed.

If anybody knows what the reason for this could be, please let me know
before it again eats up all RAM (including swap space).

apache 1.3.23, Suse 8.0 

9:55pm  up 23 days, 21:55,  3 users,  load average: 0.04, 0.01, 0.00
55 processes: 54 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states:  0.3% user,  0.3% system,  0.0% nice, 99.2% idle
Mem:   255448K av,  174172K used,   81276K free,       0K shrd,   39724K

Swap:  393584K av,    5164K used,  388420K free                   29460K

Need more information. Are you using PHP or mod_perl? What's your config look like? 
Something is leaking memory like a seive and I have never seen a base install leak 
like this.
