I am running Apache 1.3. It constantly hogs the processor up. Like usually 90 to 99%. Is there any usual causes to this? Any suggestions would be apreciated.

I forget to mention that it is running on RH 7.0. Also, I am running PHP4 with a connection to the PostgreSQL database.

Using apachectl, bounce the web server; then go check your log files and see if anything is amiss.

Large ugly queries and infinite loops on dynamic pages can also cause problems. Check the php.ini file to see if you can limit resource consumption. The idea being that if you throttle things way back, you might be able to make the offender step into the light.

Are you using Apache from an RPM or from source?
