Test script: --------------- <?php $str='<?php return array('; $imax = (int)((4*1024*1024*1024)/strlen("'hello',")); echo "generating.."; $str.=str_repeat("'hello',",$imax); $str.=");"; echo "generated. writing."; file_put_contents("wtf.php",$str); echo "written. gcing"; unset($str);gc_collect_cycles(); // << dunno if that actually helps echo ". done. including."; require("wtf.php"); Expected result: ---------------- no syntax error Actual result: -------------- root@x2ratma:/temp/fag# time php fag.php generating..generated. writing.written. gcing. done. including.PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ''h' (T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE), expecting ')' in /temp/fag/wtf.php on line 1 real 0m24.960s user 0m4.927s sys 0m17.147s root@x2ratma:/temp/fag# ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=80523&edit=1
