This should improve performance. - Enabling it by default so that it gets tested. We should decide before beta 2 if we want to revert back to malloc or not." Well, it's got some testing today.. - and it didnt do too well.. I'm testing by using the php-gtk generator.php (that parses the gtk.defs scheme file into a (huge) php array. a default php5 checkout. build on a P800 timesout after parsing about 12000 lines in 300 seconds. when I revert the change: #define ZEND_DISABLE_MEMORY_CACHE 1 It parses and builds the file ok.. in < 100seconds..
