Hey there!

I'm new to Apache Web Server. Im running version 2.0.47 on a Gentoo 1.4 box and I'm wondering, why there are so many Apache instances loaded into the memory.

See this output from ps aux:

Code:

apache 815 0.0 0.0 5280 0 ? SW Oct08 0:00 [apache2]
apache 816 0.0 2.9 5620 1608 ? S Oct08 0:00 [apache2]
apache 817 0.0 3.1 5620 1696 ? S Oct08 0:00 [apache2]
apache 818 0.0 3.0 5620 1648 ? S Oct08 0:00 [apache2]
apache 819 0.0 2.3 5420 1300 ? S Oct08 0:00 [apache2]
apache 820 0.0 1.3 5620 752 ? S Oct08 0:00 [apache2]

This is over 30MB in sum! Does anyone know what all these processes are about?

Thanks.
Georg
