PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: memory leak using foreach and references
Description:
------------
This snippet causes an out of memory. It seems that it's duplicating the
value (it's trying to allocate a memory chunk as large as each element on
the array) and it's not freeing it.
The problem persists even with a unset($v); within the foreach.
I reproduced it using php 5.2.8-cli on windows and php 5.2.5-cgi on
linux.
I think it should work, but maybe it's a php feature?
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$a = array_fill(0, 99999, str_repeat('*', 9991));
foreach ($a as &$v) ;
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Don't waste all the memory
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to
allocate 9992 bytes) in test.php on line 3
