I have been searching the net for days wondering on how to configure apache to work on my website. I been having trouble with the ammount of processes and alot of memory being used. Today I have found the website was just not loading at all. Memory was fine also Load Averages and CPU was fine also. I had no idea why this was happening. I mean I woke up to find the website was unbarably slow. For 4 days now I have been trying to configure my VPS as best as I could monitering everything. Its just showing different signs all the time.. I managed to go through everything I think I don't need and disable it in apche and php.ini aswell as rename some of the .ini scripts. My memory is still high.. I dunno why this is??? Its using like 1gb with 128 processes running. Without Apache its on 40. There is also only 7 users connected to the forums at the time of this reading from top. I'm confused.. Is there any chance I could get some help? I been banging my head against walls for ages.. I dunno what todo now. I feel like I am out of options. Hey this is an amazing guide.

Reading from a disk drive is slow compared to accessing memory. So, Linux memory management caches all <em>disk traffic</em> including HTML files (in case of WEB server). After WEB server boot, <em>free</em> command shows a lot of free memory. Few moments later (depending on system load), free memory drops to lower value and that's normal behaviour. I would be worried only if I see used swap space all other will be fine. You don't need any solution to "much" buffering unless your system start to swap.
