You need something more complicated. If you compile PHP in debug mode, you'll see the leaks by yourself. But not every circular ref seems to generate it. I cannot think out of the blue which ones do and which don't, this needs careful analysis of engine behaviour and it's too late for this :) -- Stanislav Malyshev stas@zend.com +972-3-6139665 ext.106
