Hello,
I'm using Apache from Debian Woody on my server. Now I noticed that Apache is eating up more and more memory, so that I have to restart it every few days. The following graph of the swap usage illustrates the problem: https://andreas-s.net/mrtg/localhost.swap-week.png The big drop around saturday evening was when I restarted Apache.
It seems this problem exists since I have set up a cronjob to run logrotate every hour to update my statistics. The rotation itself is only done once per week, but every time the logrotate script is run, it executes /etc/init.d/apache reload. So I tried to run "/etc/init.d/apache reload manually", and I could see the apache memory usage increase by about 500kB (fits quite well to the swapping graph):
Before: 9765 www-data 10 0 24836 21M 19968 R 4.8 21.8 0:00 apache
After /etc/init.d/apache reload: 10031 www-data 4 0 26888 23M 23508 S 0.0 23.8 0:00 apache
Any ideas on how I could track down this problem?
Andreas
I'm surprised nobody answered. How do you gather the data?
Hugo.
