I can possibly explain it, but can you tell me first whether you have verified that your web applications are in fact running in daemon mode:
http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/CheckingYourInstallation#Embedded_Or_Daemon_Mode Can you send an example of the mod_wsgi configuration for an application, ie., WSGIDaemonProcess/WSGIProcessGroup/WSGIScriptAlias etc? Also, what is the memory size of the processes you see come and go?
