Subject: [PATCH] Optimize memory usage for Apache and PHP-FPM, remove
 ioncube-loader
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Apache mpm_event: Reduced StartServers from 10 to 2, adjusted spare threads
  and worker limits for container environments
- PHP-FPM: Switched from static to dynamic process management with lower
  process counts (5 max children instead of 10)
- Removed php-ioncube-loader from PHP 8.0 installation
- Expected memory reduction: 60-70% in idle state while maintaining responsiveness
