What does "lot of problems" mean?  Perhaps if you described the  
symptoms we could help fix the cause...

I use mod_fastcgi on FreeBSD 6.1 with Apache 2.0, perl 5.8.8, SSL  
enabled.  i have to do an apache reload (graceful restart) once per  
night to force it to restart the fastcgi processes as they seem to  
memory bloat and we process a lot of tickets.  I'd love it if they  
had the equivalent of Apache::SizeLimit from mod_perl...
