Hello, i am not an expert but it depends on your trafic.
It can be explained by the number of connections.
if you have many visitors you have many connections and for each connections you have a small quantity of ram used.
You can use the #netstat -ano command to see the connections.
There is no traffic, it's idleling wordpress...
Apache is ram hogger. Enough said.
This question is akin to asking "I have 750GB used on my 1TB drive. Is this normal?"

Still you should do a netstat.
perhaps someone's partying with your server. running a thorough check won't hurt.
No, it's even on a fresh Vultr server running Apache2 and MySQL.
No partying? who is using the RAM Apache or MYSQL or half each?
simple answer : normal
Check MinSpareServers (or MinSpareThreads).
Apache 2 logs: mmap() failed: [12] Cannot allocate memory
Then the webserver crashes, every time i do something normal on my Wordpress admin side.
Never had this before, and just switched to Vultr. Poor RAM? :")
I hear they run their RAM in RAID 0...
:')
I've tested on Digitalocean too. Same problems, i'm using the newest MySQL 5.7 that must be the problem! Thanks alot, it's ready to close!
// EDIT: MySQL 5.7 has a memory leak atm.
I don't think so.
Disable performance schema, and verify the size of the innodb buffer pool size if you have innodb enabled.
I think it's related limiting by OS setting. You can see with 'ulimit -a'.
I have few wordpress sites on ArubaCloud Eur 1/month plan and RAM usage is nearly 160 MB and around 50 unique visitors a day. Guess what? its nginx.
Get rid of Apache and move to nginx.
Yes, using nginx is a smart move but apache shouldn't use that much of ram unless you have misconfigured your server.
Just use NGINX. No headaches, just awesomeness.
I have small forum using xenforo (Apache) with around 30K-50K visitors/day (traffic depend on thread popularity) and it only eat 1270MB of RAM (Discussions: 20.275, Messages: 198.082, Member: 9.242).
So nothing wrong with the apache. I just use:
