No, the script which creates 10000 variables goes fine, but the same script unrolled into 6M sheet of code dies. I know what can be done to circumvent this, I just think that there should be no crashes anyway.

It is very hard to recover from running out of memory. We do try and take care of this in emalloc() by exiting but you can run out of memory in much odder situations. You really can't recover. Andi --- Andi Gutmans <andi@zend.com> http://www.zend.com/
