RE: [PHP-DEV] Forced garbage collection

But it'd mean performance hit. Also, do you have stuff like persistent connections, etc.? The problem here could be that if you have allocated block of 70M and then another 16 bytes, and then freed 70M - it'll still be around your heap until you free 16 bytes on top of it. That's how malloc works on most systems. -- Stanislav Malyshev stas@zend.com +972-3-6139665
