PHP 4.0 Bug #9584: NSAPI PHP eating up all memory on server

From: wongh@contrive.com Operating system: Solaris 2.51 PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: *Web Server problem Bug description: NSAPI PHP eating up all memory on server I have NSAPI PHP module installed with my Netscape Iplanet Web server 4.1SP3. It can run fine with all pages but then I checked memory usage thru "top" command, and it seems that the Memory used by the scripts are not returned after completing the script. This problem also happened when i used NSAPI PHP for Netscape Enterprise Server 3.63, but the problem was not as signifcant then. After a few runs of php pages with database + ldap: 1) For NES 3.63 PHP NSAPI, it jumped from 20MB to 34MB 2) For NES 4.1SP3 PHP NSAPI, it jumped from 30MB to 65MB Is there a memory leak for PHP NSAPI or is there a way to force PHP to release its memory? I have already set the memory limit to limit each script. (IT works), but still the 1-2MB memory I Allocate to the PHP is not freed up after use. I am running it under an enterprise server and I can't have PHP eat up all the memory. It is imperative that i force php to relase it back for use, I know restarting webserver works, but I can't possibly reboot a production server frequently -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=9584&edit=1
