Bug #15965: memory limit not honoured

From: johnw@netnation.com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 4.1.2 PHP Bug Type: Performance problem Bug description: memory limit not honoured I had upgraded PHP from 4.0.6 to 4.1.2. I have memory limit enabled, and is set 8MB. php is compiled as a cgi. With 4.1.2, however, it seems this is not being honoured. I have seen numerous php processes using 24MB to 40MB. I looked at the memory limit patch for 4.0.6 and notice that it is present in 4.1.2. Has something else broken with memory limit?
