Web scripting languages RAM usage

Tested on Linux with FIOC 2.6.5, PHP 5.3.3 and Ruby 1.8.7, all running as FCGI processes.

FIOC: 8MB
PHP: 35MB
Ruby: 70MB

I propose that we shall henceforth refer to Ruby as _Shitty.

I didn't have any Perl web modules worth testing at the time.

My Vserver has 256MB RAM, and it costs $25 a month. Sure, if you want to pay $150+ a month for a real root server, be my guest, but I don't find that too feasible for small applications.
