Sebastian,
Just so you guys don't get the wrong idea, I have a garbage collector
book sitting on my shelf which I bought 2-3 years ago as I was thinking
of implementing this. Unfortunately I hit some issues and edge cases and
didn't have enough time to spend on this. So I'm definitely not against
a garbage collector. It's something I think would be very good for PHP
even if it were optional.
I do think though that we need an opportunity to review it, test it &
benchmark it. Again, whoever has done work in his life on memory
managers knows how sensitive they are.
David, do you have a patch against PHP 5.2? For some reason I don't
think I got the updated patch although Derick said you sent it out.
Thanks,
Andi
