• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey.

  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

I have shortly upgraded from 9.x to 10.01 and since then I have hughe memory usage by the apache server, this happens on two servers with the same config. strangely enough, on one of them there are no active sites(yet!)
any hints?
 
yes, but I cannot change my settings as they are needed a smooth Joomla development, so there has to be another solution
 
yes , but I have no PHP fatal error... and again
