Here are the full specs:
CPU: Pentium Dual Core E2220 @ 2.40GHz
RAM: 5GB DDR2 PC2-6400 @ 800MHz
Hard Drive: Western Digital SATA II 500GB
I'm running Fedora 12 (Constantine) on it currently and Apache version
2.2.14 with PHP version 5.3.1 and MySQL version 5.1.42.

Dan,

For one thing I would get a beefier CPU. Your CPU isn't fit to be a
serving machine it is rather slow. You need to be running a workstation
grade CPU Like a Intel Q6600 or a E6400.

For 11K hits a month? That's one hit every four minutes. From the log snippet posted, it seems to be a simple mixture of blogs and forums. Hardly supercomputer stuff. A slow single-core would serve it just fine.

Cheers,
Nicholas Sherlock

Nich,

Obviously not in this case as this person wouldn't ne here complaining about apache and its processes. The issue here is the CPU is too weak even if it is a 2.4Ghz processor. The E2220 isn't suitable for a server processor. Its strictly for home computing. I help remote administrate a server that supports 10 Domains and 5 E-Mail Servers that receive a whole lot more traffic on a P3 933Mhz and these issues are not occurring there, and the settings for Apache are default.

Thanks,
Dan
