RE: [PHP] Set Global Variables

If I do that, won't the data that I fetch be duplicated in memory for each user? I'm trying to have just one space in memory allocated for these variables, sort of like the HTTP_SERVER_VARS. It seems that even if I do an autoprepend that file is going to run each time a user visits the site and a new memory space will be created for that variable. What I'm asking is how to set those constant server-wide global variables.
