RT slows down over time

My RT installation (using mod_perl, RHEL 5) seems to slow down over
time. Restarting the Apache process restores performance.

Any suggestions on how to begin troubleshooting this? Could it be a
mod_perl issue or a mason issue?

The machine get so slow when this happens that if I try to SSH in, I
have to sit and wait for 10 seconds before the password prompt will come up.

Start from amount of free memory… try to use MaxRequestsPerChild
directive to restart apache processes from time to time.On Thu, Feb 21, 2008 at 11:56 PM, John Arends jarends@uiuc.edu wrote:
