Bug #13437 Updated: PHP cores on exit; memory deallocation problem?

ID: 13437 Updated by: edink@php.net Reported By: dshadow@zort.net -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: Reproducible crash Operating System: Linux & Solaris PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: On user request status => open Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-04 16:06:43] dshadow@zort.net This problem still happens with PHP 4.1.1. The edit submission page does not permit me to reopen bugs; I can't change that status. Can someone else please reopen this? Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-04 02:20:39] yohgaki@php.net The version of PHP that this bug was reported in is too old. Please try to reproduce this bug in the latest version of PHP (available from http://www.php.net/downloads.php If you are still able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-11 09:51:44] dshadow@zort.net I tried using apache_child_terminate() as suggested, however, this doesn't help any. (It might be beneficial if this function and its required configuration option were documented somewhere.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-10 22:32:39] zak@php.net Could you try calling apache_child_terminate() at the end of your script? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-04 10:54:55] dshadow@zort.net This helps with my problem of apache children being left in unusable states with large memory allocations. However, it is still entirely unreasonable that memory that takes only a few seconds to allocate should need several minutes to be disposed of. I just watched PHP take *six* minutes to dispose of 70 megs of memory it allocated, and on prior occasions when no one was watching, I've found it to have be running for *hours* cleaning up after itself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
