    I don't have any information related to fcgi. However, I did want to let you know that you should also check your Apache configuration because that can consume a lot of memory if not properly configured. The basics apply to both Apache and PHP: disable any modules you are not using to reduce memory consumption.

    As far as Apache, make sure your KeepAlive settings are low or even turned off if necessary. The KeepAlive forces an Apache process to sit idle waiting for additional requests from a particular client for the period of time specified in the KeepAlive Timeout setting. If it is set to 15 seconds, the Apache process will devote 15 seconds waiting for additional requests from that client/IP address instead of serving other visitors. This means that more Apache processes have to be started to handle additional visitors and this can wipe out your RAM fast.

    Honestly if you want to save memory, I'd consider switching from Apache to Nginx.
