I have a large amount of data (1,948,280 bytes) that I tried to write out to a file
using
if ($fp = fopen($file,"w")):
fwrite($fp,$contents,strlen($contents));
fclose($fp);
endif;
and got "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to
allocate 1948281 bytes)" on the 2nd line. So, I tried to write out smaller portions
with:
if ($fp = fopen($file,"w")):
$size = 4096;
while (strlen($contents)){
$temp = substr($contents,0,$size);
fwrite($fp,$temp,$size);
$contents = substr($contents,$size+1);
}
fclose($fp);
endif;
but get a similar error on the line "$contents = substr($contents,$size+1);" which is
what I'm using to try to avoid running out of memory. It appears that I can't replace
the variable with a smaller version of itself.
So, if I can't write out the whole thing and can't section it either, what can I do?
