Re: [ZEND-ENGINE-CVS] cvs: Zend / zend.czend.hzend_config.nw.h

Ananth, just let me say that expecting all utilities to clean up behind themselves will cause an unstable operating system environment in the long run. Sometimes applications fail and won't be able to clean up. Sometimes applications rely on the 30 year old UNIX semantics which dictate that the operating system will clean up the processes' resources. For example, it has been a long tradition in CGI programming to leave freeing resources to the operating system. There are also some libraries (especially the popular glib used for GTK/GIMP/GNOME/etc) which specifically expect this behaviour for speed reasons. - Sascha
