Here is how the apache process tree looks like on lenny/i386:

root      3145  0.7  1.4  25636  7512 ?        Ss   17:43   0:00 /usr/sbin/apach
www-data  3151 45.7  1.7  27988  9000 ?        S    17:43   0:34  \_ /usr/sbin/a
www-data  3152  0.0  0.7  25636  3672 ?        S    17:43   0:00  \_ /usr/sbin/a
www-data  3153  0.0  0.7  25636  3672 ?        S    17:43   0:00  \_ /usr/sbin/a
www-data  3154  0.0  0.7  25636  3672 ?        S    17:43   0:00  \_ /usr/sbin/a
www-data  3155  0.0  0.7  25636  3672 ?        S    17:43   0:00  \_ /usr/sbin/a
www-data  3156  0.0  0.7  25636  3672 ?        S    17:43   0:00  \_ /usr/sbin/a

After processing the request child size goes below 10MB so it seems the
memory leak occurs on amd64.
