Good answer to another question.
No, i don't won't to restrict the memory usage. i want use huge arrays
and i also want the php to free the memory it use on the end of
script.
If that is not possible for some reason, please mark this bug as won't
fix not bogus.

if you want to restrict memory usage use the memory-limit configuration
option when compiling PHP.

Thank for the replay, but please read my question carefully.
I know that php free the allocated by emalloc memory on the end of
script, my question was why php don't do it for the memory that was
allocated by the *php end user* just like the example i give above.
Yes you can call it feature, and blame linux mm, but the fact that php
do it for the memory used by the extensions developers, give me a hint
that may there is simple way protecting the end user to not kill his
server as well, especially when we talk about linux+apache 1.3.x that
AFAIK it the most common configuration of production php web servers.
(sorry for opening the bug again, if you will change the status of the
bug to 'will not fix', i'll let him die)

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
PHP uses an internal memory memory manager, when you allocate memory
using emalloc() it'll be freed at the end of the request, even if you
don't free it explicitly yourself.

My apology of being nagger but the bellow code, use memory (even
without inner free) that become free right after the script execution
ending. is there a problem to get back the php varibles memory, just
like the efree do?
PHP_FUNCTION(momo_test)
{
char *some_memory;
int a;
some_memory = (char *) emalloc(0x400);
for(a=0;a0x400;a++) some_memory[a]=0;
//efree(some_memory);
}
Can you send me more exact reference how the linux memory allocation
responsible for this spend memory?

Expected behaviour. Search more information how memory allocation and
freeing works in Linux from the web..and also 'man ps'
