This is based on our experience with making changes in the memory manager (significantly smaller changes than this one) and how long it takes to stabilize them.

RE: Re: [PHP-DEV] What should be in 5.3?
Sebastian, Just so you guys don't get the wrong idea, I have a garbage collector book sitting on my shelf which I bought 2-3 years ago as I was thinking of implementing this. Unfortunately I hit some issues and edge cases and didn't have enough time to spend on this. So I'm definitely not against a garbage collector. It's something I think would be very good for PHP even if it were optional. I do think though that we need an opportunity to review it, test it benchmark it. Again, whoever has done work in his life on memory managers knows how sensitive they are. David, do you have a patch against PHP 5.2? For some reason I don't think I got the updated patch although Derick said you sent it out.

This should still remain a PHP 6 item if we can actually make it works in an acceptable way. Have you checked the latest patch that david send here? He updated quite a bit to address all the issues that were raised as far as I know.
