Note Submitter: Sezer Yalcin - pcdscorp.com ---- For advanced PHP users: Here is what happens to keys when you use $a[] syntax: $a[] = 1; // key is 0 $a[] = 1; // key is 1 So it goes from 0 to 2147483647 Then jumps to -2147483648 and goes up to 0 again. (if you do $a[] for 4294967296 times) When its 0, it starts over and does 0, 1, 2 ... I needed to investigate this in order to avoid any instability. Our spam filter MAHAN does this $a[] millions of times but removes completed elements so that there is no memory outage.
