I'm confused - when using a command similar to the one below, is it spawn-fcgi handling memory or php-cgi? When I check the processlist (ps aux) I see 4 instances of "php-cgi", each one with a slowly growing memory usage.

Maybe its the app I'm using which doesn't finish correctly. Its contributed to by a few different developers, some of which are new to the system and might not be finishing their scripts with the correct return state.

You are right, I didn't express myself correctly. One should read "php-spawn-fcgi uses 5MB of memory", php-spawn-fcgi being a daemon that I created using the following command:

/usr/bin/spawn-fcgi -a 127.0.0.1 -p 10005 -u www-data -g www-data -C 5 -f /usr/bin/php-cgi -P /var/run/spawn-fcgi/php-spawn-fcgi.pid

I guess that Phillip is using the same kind of setup to handle php with Nginx. And that the ram usage he is talking about is the ram usage of the php-spawn-fcgi process.

The MySQL ram usage remains low certainly because I am always hitting the same index page which has very little data on it (I created 10 empty sub-forums), but that's benchmarking, it is impossible to perfeclty mimic real-life behavior and anyway the goal was no to stress test mysql.

Best regards,
