(excuse me for my poor english)

Specifications PC

AMD Duron 650, 128 MB SD-RAM, 9 GB HD
Slackware Linux 8.1, kernel 2.4.18, apache 1.3.27 with DSO, PHP 4.2.3

With the command "top" I discovered that the libhttpd.ep proces is using a lot of memory
There are eight libhttpd.ep processes. (is this normal?)
Each using 2 or 3 percent of the memory, and growing bigger.
After 2 or 3 hours my 128 MB RAM is full and Linux starts swapping

Why is it that libhttpd.ep is using so much memory?

I installed my server this way:

Please help me.
I am stuck.
