PHP Bug Type: PCRE related
Bug description: (.+?) will not match greater than 99,997 bytes
Description:
------------
Before submitting a bug, I consulted with Phillip Hazel, the maintainer of
PCRE. He tested up to over 400k of data with PCRE and had no problems.
So, I am thinking this is a PHP issue.
Basically, (.+?) will not match over 99,997 bytes. This worked in PHP 5.0
and all previous versions I have used.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$string = "<tag>".str_repeat("x", 99997)."</tag>";
if(preg_match('/<tag>(.+?)<\/tag>/', $string, $match)){
echo "Match 99997!\n";
}
$string = "<tag>".str_repeat("x", 99998)."</tag>";
if(preg_match('/<tag>(.+?)<\/tag>/', $string, $match)){
echo "Match 99998!\n";
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Match 99997!
Match 99998!
Actual result:
--------------
Match 99997!
