Maybe... but I have never had a problem with WP and I actually manage a number of web sites that use WP. Memory and CPU cycles are cheap.
Not cheap enough.
I use apache all the time on not all that new hardware, properly tuned it works.

Many say Apache is also a "memory and CPU hog" but it does not stop the majority of web admins in the world from using Apache versus another web server
I have a home server that hosts various things for myself and friends. It wasn't much but it happily ran multiple different websites/forums/wiki via Apache, some MMO, a bunch of databases, some file storage, folding@home, and much more besides.
When one of my hosted sites wanted to move to wordpress, I needed to upgrade the memory fourfold, the CPU several generations, to accommodate
one instance.
There exists tutorials and mods all over the internet for making Wordpress less of a burden, I'm skeptical they'd exist if it didn't waste resources.
I won't mince words. Wordpress is a pig.
