mod-pagespeed

I have found several threads from 2010 and early-2011 talking about excessive resource usage by mod_pagespeed

I haven't seen any recent ones.

I am facing excessive memory usage, which is causing server to crash several times a day.

I am wondering if the issue was ever fixed before mod_pagespeed 1.0 was released.

Also, request any tips and suggestion on how to fix the issue.

My server configuration:
4 quad-core processors (likely oversold) 3GB memory Xen Centos 6 64-bit Apache cPanel PHP mySQL
