Foswiki::Engine::FastCGI MaxRequrests
limits the number of requests one backend process is allowed to
serve before it will terminate and respawn a substitute. This can be used to
fight back memory leaks in the application where the processes memory
consumption grows over time. Default is 100 requests. Lower this limit when
processes tend to grow too fast over time exceeding your server's memory
capacities. A negative value disables this heuristics. Reasonable values are
roughly 10 or 20 depending on the profile of additional plugins and libraries.
Note also, that mod_fcgid has got similar configuration parameters. Alas, this project is abandoned at the time of this writing. mod_fastcgi on the other hand is missing this option, as far as I can say.
The actual value ofMaxRequest
also depends on the maximum number of parallel
threads and fcgi backend processes that are allowed to be spawned by the web server.
