ID: 8414 Updated by: sniper Reported By: omakarenko@cyberplat.ru Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Performance problem PHP Version: 4.0.4 Assigned To: Comments: I can't reproduce this with latest CVS. If problem still persist with PHP 4.0.5 or with latest CVS snapshot from http://snaps.php.net/ reopen this bug report. --Jani Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-07 02:10:02] danbeck@php.net I'm re-filing this as a bug report. It appears that set_time_out() is acting inconsistant. The following code stops after 5 seconds as you would expect: set_time_limit(5); while(1) { $i++; } While this code continues executing indefinitely: set_time_limit(5); while(1) { $i++; echo "$in"; } --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-12-25 05:55:38] omakarenko@cyberplat.ru documentation is not clear enough on what "excecution time" the max_execution_parameter does limit. try the following: <?php set_time_limit(1); while(1) sleep(1); ?> on my machine that runs much more then one second, while: <?php set_time_limit(1); while(1); ?> stops after 1 second as expected. That difference is never mentioned in documentaion. While the usage of PROF timer make sence sometimes the parameter name "max_execution_time" suggests the "real" time limit so that <?php set_time_limit(30); sleep(3600); ?> should be terminated on timeout after 30 seconds. oleg --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
