| I have a  VMware vm with 4 Intel cpus at 2.2 ghz, Windows 2016, 12 gig of RAM, httpd is using 9 of them. 
 If I add more memory, will httpd consume that too?  MySQL is local as well and is using 286 megabytes of RAM.
 
 I never got around to changing to fcgi on my WordPress Windows vm's...

 It sounds like you have a memory leak in your PHP version.
 
 Going to mod_fcgid is easy. Here is a working example for WordPress.
 
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | Define SRVROOT "/Users/jblond/Apache24"
 Define WORKROOT "/Users/jblond/work/"
 Define PHP82RC "C:\\php82"
 
 <VirtualHost *:80>
 ServerName wp.local.apachehaus.de
 
 DirectoryIndex index.php
 
 <IfModule fcgid_module>
 FcgidInitialEnv PHPRC "${PHP82RC}"
 FcgidInitialEnv PATH "${PHP82RC};C:\\WINDOWS\\system32;C:\\WINDOWS;C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\Wbem;"
 FcgidInitialEnv SystemRoot "C:\\Windows"
 FcgidInitialEnv SystemDrive "C:"
 FcgidInitialEnv TEMP "C:\\WINDOWS\\TEMP"
 FcgidInitialEnv TMP "C:\\WINDOWS\\TEMP"
 FcgidInitialEnv windir "C:\\WINDOWS"
 FcgidPassHeader Authorization
 <Files ~ "\.php$">
 Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
 AddHandler fcgid-script .php
 FcgidWrapper "C:/php82/php-cgi.exe" .php
 </Files>
 </IfModule>
 
 CustomLog "C:\Users\jblond\Apache24\logs\wp_access.log" common
 ErrorLog "C:\Users\jblond\Apache24\logs\wp_error.log"
 
 DocumentRoot "${WORKROOT}wp"
 <Directory "${WORKROOT}wp">
 Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
 AllowOverride None
 Require all granted
 </Directory>
 </VirtualHost>
 
 
 <Directory ${WORKROOT}wp>
 AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
 # BEGIN WordPress

 RewriteRule . index.php [L]
 </IfModule>
 # END WordPress

 nope, not a typo. The first one sets "PHPRC" aka the location of the php.ini file. The second one add the PHP installation path to the PATH variable.
 
 The FcgidWrapper "C:/php80/php-cgi.exe" .php should be FcgidWrapper "C:/php82/php-cgi.exe" .php. it is a typo. I corrected that. Thanks fo the hint.

| Hi, 
 To use FCGI mode with Wampserver, I proceed a little differently.
 
 Different versions of php are installed in ${INSTALL_DIR}/bin/php/ for example:
 e:\wamp64\bin\php\php7.4.33\
 e:\wamp64\bin\php\php8.0.30\
 e:\wamp64\bin\php\php8.1.28\
 e:\wamp64\bin\php\php8.2.13\
 e:\wamp64\bin\php\php8.2.19\
 e:\wamp64\bin\php\php8.3.7\
 
 In httpd.conf file:
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | ...
 # Where Wampserver is installed
 Define INSTALL_DIR E:/wamp64
 ...
 LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so
 ...
 <IfModule fcgid_module>
 FcgidMaxProcessesPerClass 300
 FcgidConnectTimeout 10
 FcgidProcessLifeTime 0
 FcgidMaxRequestsPerProcess 0
 FcgidMinProcessesPerClass 0
 FcgidFixPathinfo 0
 FcgidZombieScanInterval 20
 FcgidMaxRequestLen 536870912
 FcgidIOTimeout 120
 FcgidTimeScore 3
 FcgidPassHeader Authorization
 Define PHPROOT ${INSTALL_DIR}/bin/php/php
 </IfModule>
 | 
 
 In the httpd-vhosts.conf file, for a VirtualHost:
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName mylocalsite
 DocumentRoot "mydirectory"
 <Directory  "mydirectory/">
 Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
 AllowOverride All
 Require local
 </Directory>
 <IfModule fcgid_module>
 Define FCGIPHPVERSION "7.4.33"
 FcgidInitialEnv PHPRC ${PHPROOT}${FCGIPHPVERSION}
 <Files ~ "\.php$">
 Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews +ExecCGI
 AddHandler fcgid-script .php
 FcgidWrapper "${PHPROOT}${FCGIPHPVERSION}/php-cgi.exe" .php
 </Files>
 </IfModule>
 </VirtualHost>
 
 | 
 This makes it very easy to change the PHP version to be used for a VirtualHost, and to use different versions of PHP for different VirtualHosts.
