in thread using HTTP::Daemon instead of Apache

On Linux and average modperl apache process has a memory footprint of 2-5MB

I am not sure what you mean by "average," but I've found mine will range anywhere between 10MB and 30MB (this is for rather involved apps for bioinformatics).

I've often seen 12-17MB cited as the expected range for "typical" webapps.

    Sorry I was referring to the C based httpd part not the Perl side. As noted a trivial perl script is 4-5MB and this is addidtive to the base. I have seen the same figures as you.

    cheers
