PHP does not reclaim any memory no longer referenced? No garbage collection? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-20 11:12:37] [EMAIL PROTECTED] PHP is designed to bail out (to stop executing) when the memory has been run out. So it's natural that the runtime end up segfaulting. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-20 10:30:58] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The following code: <% class Object { var $prev; var $next; function unter (&$ref) { $ref->prev = &$this; $this->next = &$ref; } }; while (true) { print "NEW ROUND\n"; { $o = &new Object; for ($i = 0; $i < 10000; ++$i) { $o->unter (new Object); $o = &$o->next; } unset ($o); } } %> consumes as much memory it can get. I would expect that PHP garbage-collects the memory. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21775&edit=1
