Killing PID of high-memory Apache instance

[Moore-Levesque, John H (CGI Federal)]

My understanding of this configuration here:

 

check process apache with pidfile /var/run/httpd.pid

               […]

               if total cpu > 80% for 5 cycles then restart

 

Is that monit will kill restart Apache if the CPU usage of all the processes (parent and children) is over 80% for 5 cycles. Is it possible to have monit instead kill a single Apache PID with high CPU or memory usage? Or is it all-or-nothing?
