It looks to me that --enable-memory-limit mixes 2 independant roles : - setting the amount of available memory, and enabling eventually local setting, - enabling the evaluation of the process consumption. I would like to be wrong on this :) -- togggSomething else I'd like to see changed... Does anyone think memory_get_[peak_]usage() should *always* be available, regardless of whether memory_limit is actually enabled? Using the Windows binaries at least, I was devastated :-D that they were unavailable for experimenting, etc.Counting memory all the time adds a fair amount of overhead to script execution especially given how frequently PHP needs to allocate memory. Therefore usage memory utilization functions are only available when PHP is compiled with memory in which case it keeps track of its mem usage.
