Something like > Apache's MaxRequestsPerChild directive would be cool. I use daemontools similar to http://www.catalystframework.org/calendar/2006/4 . My run file looks like this: ======================================================================== #!/bin/sh cd /srv/www/vhosts/myapp exec 2>&1 \ setuidgid myappuser \ softlimit -m 150000000 \ script/myapp_fastcgi.pl -e -l /var/tmp/myapp/fastcgi.socket -n 10 ======================================================================== Sets uid and gid to "myappuser ", Spawns 10 processes and listens on the specified UNIX socket. If a process gets too big, it gets terminated and replaced by a fresh one (softlimit is part of daemontools, but you could use ulimit instead). > Then it's time to go memory leak hunting :( I don't care much since softlimit restarts the FCGI processes (under normal conditions approx. every 12 hours). BTW - here are the manpages for daemontools http://smarden.sunsite.dk/pape/djb/manpages/daemontools-0.76-man.tar.gz HTH -- Bernhard Graf _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
