From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5CVS-2004-04-23 (dev) PHP Bug Type: Apache2 related Bug description: Memory is not freed with apache2handler SAPI
Description: ------------ PHP does not free the memory it's using during and after a request when using apache2handler SAPI. apache2filter SAPI works fine. The memory it's using is however reused, but if I would send 500MB data and only have 256MB RAM, the OOM killer would start killing processes and apache when there are no more processes to kill (depending on OOM killer used). Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $string = ''; for ($i = 0; $i < 1024; $i++) $string .= 'A'; for ($i = 0; $i < (1024 * 200); $i++) { echo $string; flush(); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Low memory usage Actual result: -------------- PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 8434 nobody 25 0 284m 238m 52m S 0.0 31.6 0:25.14 httpd -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28113&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28113&r=float
