[Catalyst] Catalyst benchmark 5.7 VS 5.8

[Fayland Lam]

I'm wondering if someone here did a benchmark between Catalyst 5.7 and 5.8

here is the result from our server: http://scsys.co.uk:8001/34323

the background is
Catalyst 5.7011 VS Catalyst 5.80013
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad  CPU   Q8200  @ 2.33GHz
RAM: 4G
OS: Centos5

from the top, each httpd takes 20M more RAM in 5.8 compared with 5.7

5.7
  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
22979 apache    16   0  167m 142m 4248 S 17.0  3.5   0:06.07 httpd

5.8
  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
24813 apache    15   0  190m 165m 4000 S 15.6  4.1   0:02.56 httpd


in this case, I really can't let my boss agree me to upgrade the Catalyst.

is it normal? any thoughts?

Thanks.
