Hi!
Yes, I like this idea better as it's more flexible but I wasn't sure if we wanted that much visibility into the global variables of the allocator. I suppose though, as with other things of this nature, if you're mucking with this data then you should be doing so at your own risk etc. ;-)
Well, messing up AG is not worse than messing up EG or CG - you'll end up crashing pretty soon anyway :) Only problem might be that it may introduce binary dependencies that will limit what we can do in memory manager between versions, so we need to consider this carefully. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Software Architect stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ (408)253-8829 MSN: stas@zend.com
