Possibly I will be able to provide you with some inspirational words of
wisdom, or not.
We have limited the instances of Httpd, and dont run -D SSL nor is there
MySQL running on each VS.
and yes, even with out these extra processes it does cause significantly
high usage, our motto around here, unused CPU/RAM is wasted CPU/RAM,
actually on a good mid day 5 min average, we are at about 65 % load.
We all come from a skate boarding, dirt bike riding back ground, and the
motto there is, "Go Hard, or, Go Home" :) now 15 years later, we still live
by it.
