● OS : 64 bit Linux OS
● CPU : Intel i5, 2.5 Hz, 4 cores
● Memory : 8 GB
● Apache Web Server
When the target web application is set to receive 300 requests per minute, the APM Insight PHP Agent consumes only 1 % CPU on average (using default production settings).
On increasing the throughput to 600 requests per minute, the APM Insight PHP agent consumes around 0.3-1.6% CPU on average.
The below table summarizes the details.

Impact on Physical Memory (RAM) usage:
The APM Insight PHP Agent by default collects performance data and pushes it to its own service, every minute, and hence, the footprint on the user memory is minimal, and only transient.
The memory usage is a maximum of 212 KB at an RPM of 300, and a maximum of 24 KB at an RPM of 600.
The below table summarizes the details.
