Please open a separate ticket for this issue, and supply a minimal self-contained test script. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-06-23 04:59:46] jim dot michaels at Jesusnjim dot com Description: ------------ the thousands of zip files that are in the chm get extracted into %temp% (you can put that into the breadcrumb menu/address bar of windows explorer) and chew up huge amounts of space and get left there. the sheer amount of dirs make a simple directory listing about 15sec to do that. just look at the range of folder's properties to get disk space used. 37GB. 1 zip file with lots of stuff in the archive (can take trees) takes up less disk space than a whole bunch of little ones, which consume a partial sector and then the rest of the space is wasted*nFiles... zip and lzma compression do high compression on html or text. also, php is not working correctly, scripts don't run right in 71a1 or earlier. is there a %2 bug in the c++ compiler's source tree? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72475&edit=1
