title: Prefork MPM configuration not in httpd.conf
body: <p>I have a memory problem with my EC2 Micro instance which is causing it to terminate my MySQL process. </p>
  
  <p>I've read a lot about tuning Apache to limit the memory consumption and am looking to edit the Prefork MPM settings. Catch is - when I go into httpd.conf, I see no mention of any MPM modules. </p>
  
  <p>I've been looking around and the only reference I can find to it is in /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-mpm.conf  where I can see that the prefork module is supposed to be loaded. (LoadModule mpm_prefork_module modules/mod_mpm_prefork.so)</p>
  
  <p>When I do httpd -l , prefork.c is NOT listed. </p>
  
  <p>At this point I'm not sure if the module is loaded/compiled with apache, and if it is - how to configure it. Appreciate any help!</p>
