This is probably normal memory usage. This is not a problem, as long as it doesn't grow much beyond that, right? I have two small sites that share a lot of code running on a webfaction account. With ServerLimit 1 and media hosted on the main apache instance (which doesn't count against me for RAM usage), I stay pretty constant at 32-35MB. I don't think it would be possible to get much lower than that. Libraries have to get loaded somewhere, afterall. I guess maybe you could try to reduce your imports. -Forest -- Forest Bond http://www.alittletooquiet.net
