When you run: <? $a=array(); $b[]=&$a; $a[]=&$b; ?> You will get warnings about memory leaks. I know that it is ugly code etc. but shouldn't it be solved by ZE? It should free such things properly. I know that in this simple case whole memory is freed, but if we add resource to $a table, resource desctructor won't be called because of reference - that's why PHP leeks memory. Am I right?

Putting out the warning is better. Eventually a damn note that the user shoot his self in the knee. But that would slow down performance. AND a side note: even java does not handle that. regards marcus
