2 instances of apache.exe

Post by vigge89 »

I've got two instances of apache.exe running by default at boot (Windows Xp Home), and they're eating 18mb and 13mb of RAM. I'm wondering if this is right, shouldn't there only be one instance running?

one is the initial process, which does the actual start of the second that launches all the threads and fibers. If the second crashes, the first restarts it :)
