Apache Memory
Hi,
This is my first thread, so go easy on me. I have a question which hope someone will enlighten me. I'm running Apache 2.2.4 and php 4.4.7. When I do a 'top', the memory usage showing I'm using 628472k of 969624k memory, However the load is very low, below 1 just wondering, is it normal Apache will allocated a portion of memory even it is not used at the moment ?

Welcome to forum!
Yes it is very common on Linux and UNIX commands to consume all free memory. Basically OS caches all frequently used files in memory and server them from memory. Here is output from my system: Code:
free -m Code:
total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 2008 1595 412 0 58 718 -/+ buffers/cache: 818 1189 Swap: 1027 0 1027 Code:
uptime Code:
11:03:29 up 137 days, 11:23, 1 user, load average: 0.16, 0.10, 0.09
