[Resolved] [Resolved] WinXP and multiple instances of php (not on purpose)

[biggus]

I've got a WAMP setup here with Apache listening on several ports to simulate each site having its own server. Sometimes, the machine (XP, p4 2.4Ghz, 512 Mb RAM) starts to run pretty slow, so I look in the task manager and see 7 or more instances of php.exe running. Any idea why there are so many instances going? I typically only hit two or three ports at a time.

Thanks,
Mike

OK..when I either click stop or close the browser window before php has finished generating the page, php doesn't exit. This was happening on a strange error that would cause php to generate a gigantic page (>4Mb). So, with that solved, I no longer get the multiple instances.
