Hi guys,
I currently have a droplet Ubuntu, 1 GB with one wordpress website on it. It does not have many requests.
For some reason (since yesterday), Apache is eating my RAM and CPU. Htop preview
I already set my apache2.conf to this:
<IfModule mpm_prefork_module>
StartServers 1
MinSpareServers 1
MaxSpareServers 1
MaxClients 10
MaxRequestsPerChild 5
</IfModule>
And i still get a CPU op 100% and memory of ±80/90%.
Can you guys help me?

This question was answered by @ryanpq:
While it’s not unusual for MySQL to take up a lot of memory on a smaller droplet apache becoming a resource hog in this way is not really typical. On apache php scripts being run will fall under apache processes since they are run via mod_php. I would recommend checking on any installed plugins and trying out disabling them one at a time to see if this has any affect on the resource usage.
