Hi

Recently our store began to use a lot of memory. With only approx. 10 visitors on site our OSC is using over 768 MB of server memory, which causes "server down"

We have memcached installed and SEO and cache all done.

Any idea where to look which processes are eating memory? This is not normal :(

Thank you

1) Apache & Mysql is not optimised
2) DDOS attacks on your website
