ID: 20937 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: garland_foster@fibertel.com.ar -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: *General Issues Operating System: Win2000, MacOS PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. The memory usage will depend on the amount of data retrieved from the SQL server.

The PHP binary randomly cunsumes up to 5Mb of memory for no clear reason. When the whole application is loaded this leads to binaries from 2Mb to 12Mb. The script includes PEAR::DB (DB.php), connects to the database (MySQL) and dies. Zillions of users are complainin about exhausted memory problems and we have to make them change the maximum memory size for PHP scripts in their php.ini settings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20937&edit=1
