static apache - minimal use

[liran ritkop]

Hi all..
I am new to apache and i have some questions about it..
i cross compiled it on an hawkboard, which has ARM arch'.
the main question is how to make apache use as minimal as possible, for example, when i use the 'top' command on the target i can see 6 process of httpd, and i want only 1!
so how to minimize the sources use of apache to minimal (make it static)?
:cool:

The 6 processes you see are 6 available connections for web browsers to connect to. The main application is only running once in memory but has 6 children listening on port 80 for a connection.

If you look at the process tree you will see something like this:
