Hi,

i'm new to webroar and just changed the number of workers min/max, but
the process list still shows at least 4 worker process running. Even a
reboot doesn't change this number. Any hints?

Thanks

Thor42,
By default, WebROaR runs one worker process for Admin Panel (that can
be turned off using the command - sudo webroar stop "Admin Panel"). It
also runs minimum 4 workers to serve the static assets (.js, .css
etc). These workers consume very little memory (~1 MB each). All of
these would show up running as 'root'.

Apart from these, initially it runs the minimum workers specified for
each application with the specified 'RunAsUser' privileges. Please
note that the values set for min/max workers for each application, are
the ones that are used overriding the one set for 'Server
Specifications'. You can change them through the Admin Panel.

Hope this resolves your query. Please do let us know in case you have
any more questions.

Thanks,
Dharmarth
