Hi all

I'm currently running a server which primarily hosts a number of WordPress sites.

It's configured with HTTP/2, NGINX reverse proxy, and LSAPI PHP Handler.

Is Apache RLimits (Memory Usage Restrictions) still required, and if so what setting? The UI is recommending "1,535 MB" which seems pretty high. 

Thanks in advance.

  Hey there!  I swear I replied to this several days ago, but I no longer see the message here, so I'll post it again.

  I reached out to the development team and everyone I spoke to said this value isn't necessary in 2025 and there is a reason this isn't enabled by default.

  Hi cPRex
  
  Yes, you did reply, but the post then disappeared???
  
  Thanks for replying again. I'll make a note in our logs that RLimits is no longer necessary.
