Hi,

On a shared server with a large number of accounts

################

The memory usage of nginx is very high
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Private + Shared = RAM used Program
1.6 GiB + 4.9 GiB = 6.5 GiB nginx (3)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

# cat /proc/2068600/maps

2068600: nginx: master process /usr/sbin/nginx -c /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

It looks like the heap is 2.6GB in size.

Is there a way to reduce this?

The configuration is not the problem ( which is why I am not attaching it)
as systems will a smaller number of vhosts using the same config consume
less ram
