 2.  Cause any httpd_perl child process which exceeds 20 megabytes in
 memory usage to terminate after it's done.

Apache::SizeLimit (and others) can do this.

Checkout Apache::SizeLimit. You can put something like this in your startup.pl:


use Apache::SizeLimit;
$Apache::SizeLimit::MAX_PROCESS_UNSHARED_SIZE = 2;
$Apache::SizeLimit::CHECK_EVERY_N_REQUESTS = 2;

 Subject: mod_perl child processes using way too much RAM
 
 
 Hi,
 
 I have a single script which is working but making the 
 httpd_perl child
 processes jump to 60 Megs or more. I've asked the programmer 
 to fix the
 script, but until he does, I'm wondering if I can either:
 
  1. Force the script to run under PerlRun or under 
 normal CGI. The
 problem is that I run all the scripts in the directory under 
 mod_perl. 
 And this script is called from a large number of other files and the
 directory is hard-coded in those files so I can't move it easily. 
 
  Or,
 
  2. Cause any httpd_perl child process which exceeds 20 
 megabytes in
 memory usage to terminate after it's done.
 
 Thanks!
 
 Bob
