Thanks. I'm not saying you're wrong I'm just curios, how do you know and what's the difference with Apache (below) that is using up memory for each process?
And why does ps show individual threads? Shouldn't it only show processes as the name implies? And why does each one show it is using a percentage of memory? PID PPID RSS VSZ %CPU %MEM CMD 23282 1 1424 4304 0.0 1.2 /usr/sbin/httpd 30483 23282 1640 4508 0.0 1.3 /usr/sbin/httpd 30538 23282 1640 4508 0.0 1.3 /usr/sbin/httpd 30639 23282 1640 4508 0.0 1.3 /usr/sbin/httpd 31453 23282 1644 4508 0.0 1.3 /usr/sbin/httpd Sorry for so many questions.
