Description:
------------
I'm getting this:
FATAL: erealloc(): Unable to allocate 3358824 bytes
The process only allocates approximately 30Megs (according to top and
ps). I've increased the ulimits to beyond 256Megs. I've also run php
test scripts with different memory allocation and str_repeats and such
to create a large processes. All work well. In addition I wrote c
code to bang on realloc(3) in openbsd. I know there is plenty of ram
left. But this code does get pretty ugly with multiple levels of
associative arrays. I'm happy to help out any way I can.
Reproduce code:
---------------
http://www.boing.com/phptest.tgz - contains the
phptest.php script and
in a directory, the data file extensions.xml.gz. I stripped down the
typo3.org cms code that pulls in their "new extensions" such that code
to reproduce is here. I turned it into a standalone file. And it all
started out as a research project...
php phptest.php
I've tried many different configure options, but this is the current
attempt: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php5
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql
--with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql --with-ldap=/usr/local/openldap
--with-pear --with-zlib --with-libexpat-dir=/usr/local/shared
Expected result:
----------------
a file called extensions.bin that should be the serialized output of
the nasty looking array. Hey I didn't write the original code, I'm
just the messenger. :) I definitely don't expect it to not be able to
allocate 3 megs.
Actual result:
--------------
FATAL: erealloc(): Unable to allocate 3358824 bytes
