But memory usage is still increasing when I execute the following under windows (reproduces with 5.2.8, 5.2.9 and 5.2.10 under windows xp and windows server 2003) until I reach the 2 GB limit of my windows 32bit: for( $i = 1; ; $i++ ) strtotime( '+1 week', $i ); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-19 14:11:36] tim at digicol dot de I have verified that this bug is fixed in the PHP snapshot php5.2- 200812191130.tar.bz2. Thanks a lot! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-18 14:57:03] der...@php.net This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-18 11:12:33] martin at 925 dot dk Reproduced here. OS: FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p4 PHP: PHP 5.2.8 (cli) (built: Dec 8 2008 19:11:49) Copyright (c) 1997-2008 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2008 Zend Technologies ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-17 15:11:48] tim at digicol dot de Description: ------------ With PHP 5.2.8, strtotime() on my Linux box leaks memory; we've noticed it because we're using long-running scripts with the PHP CLI. In our case, the PHP processes grew to hundreds of MB RAM usage within minutes. This is not the case with PHP 5.2.6. The funny thing is that neither memory_get_usage(false) nor memory_get_usage(true) report the actual memory usage; here's a line from top: 22728 digicol 25 0 258m 218m 6928 R 75.4 43.4 0:42.91 php ... while the PHP functions report at the same time: memory_get_usage(false): 1738020 memory_get_usage(true): 1835008 What's also funny is that the default "memory_limit = 128M" setting doesn't help: PHP doesn't notice that this much RAM is being used and so doesn't kill the script. (But I can trigger the memory limit as usual with other PHP scripts, so PHP's memory limit isn't entirely broken.) I tested with an unchanged copy of php.ini-recommended. My configure string: './configure' '--with-apxs2=/usr/bin/apxs2' '--enable-exif' '-- enable-ftp' '--enable-mbregex' '--enable-mbstring=all' '--enable- pcntl' '--enable-soap' '--enable-zip' '--with-zlib' '--with-curl' '-- with-freetype-dir=/usr' '--with-gd' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with- ldap' '--with-mysqli' '--with- oci8=instantclient,/usr/local/lib/instantclient' '--enable-sigchild' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-xsl' '--with-mcrypt' This is Debian Linux 4.0, running in VMware Fusion on an Intel Mac. Thanks a lot for looking into this, and for the great work on PHP! Reproduce code: --------------- <?php // Run with the PHP CLI on the Linux shell... // WARNING: If this bug affects you as well, your machine // might start swapping within just a few seconds! while (true) strtotime('2008-12-16 19:48:27'); ?> Expected result: ---------------- No increase in memory usage. Actual result: -------------- Memory usage is increasing dramatically - on my box, the process is growing by 100 MB per second... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46889&edit=1
