RE: [PHP-DEV] hi memory usage with php-cli

[Pete McCormick]

Hi,

For your $product array, are you using associative keys on each, so like:

$product = array('name' => $name, 'art.no' => $artnum, ... );

If so, you might find that if you replaced the string keys with constants,
you would save memory, because a constant is an integer and takes less
storage space than a string.

Example:

 $name, PROD_ARTNUM => $artnum, ... );
?>

I think that might save you some memory. Just an idea.

Subject: [PHP-DEV] hi memory usage with php-cli


Hi,


I have a huge xml-file with about 500k lines, which gives around 17000
products, which I import to a database. The problem is that the script is
taking a lot of memory, about 100mb when it's finished.

The script goes something like this
$product = array(), then I add some values to the array, name, art.no, and
when the product is done, I do $product = array(), and do the same thing
over and over.

Is there any way to configure php/zend to use less memory?

I've tried #define ZEND_DISABLE_MEMORY_CACHE 1 which doesn't help.



best regards
Robin
