Re: How much memory does PHP take?

Here is a sample from top on my machine. I have it statically linked -- no mod_php. PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 9920 nobody 0 0 3676 3000 1756 S 0 0.0 2.3 7:35 httpd 13087 nobody 0 0 3560 2896 1768 S 0 0.0 2.2 4:56 httpd 14767 nobody 0 0 3396 2768 1772 S 0 0.0 2.1 1:47 httpd 29331 nobody 0 0 3456 2864 1956 S 0 0.0 2.2 1:23 httpd 6207 nobody 0 0 3860 3364 2240 S 0 0.0 2.6 0:04 httpd This is my PHP configure line: ./configure --with-gd --with-xml --enable-calendar --with-mysql \ --with-config-file-path=/my/path --enable-debug=no \ --with-apache=/my/apache/src --with-mcrypt --enable-gz --with-zlib \ --enable-bcmath Not to mention, my apache is compiled with mod_ssl as well. I'm glad you asked, it has been a while since I checked how big my binary was getting.
