From: Operating system: WinXP SP3 PHP version: 5.3.2 Package: Scripting Engine problem Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Memory leak in infinite loop
Description: ------------ Run PHP script with infinite loop from command line. Call each loop database function from extension (I tested SQLite and Mysqli). Open task manager. You will see that memory use is growing up, while PHP function memory_get_usege() reports that memory usage is constant. The memory usage may grow up to 1,5Gb or even more (depends on script code size), even if memory_limit is set to 8Mb. How is this possible?! Test script: --------------- <?php $dbfile = 'mysqlitedb.db'; if(file_exists($dbfile)) unlink($dbfile); $db = new SQLite3($dbfile); $db->exec('CREATE TABLE foo (id INTEGER, bar varchar(30))'); $db->exec("INSERT INTO foo (id, bar) VALUES (1, 'This is a test')"); $i=0; while(1) { $i++; $db->exec("INSERT INTO foo (id, bar) VALUES ($i, 'This is a test')"); $db->exec("UPDATE foo SET bar='This is memory leak' WHERE id=$i"); echo "$i ".memory_get_usage()." ".memory_get_usage(true)."\r"; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Constant memory usage. Actual result: -------------- Memory usage grown up (script output): iteration, memory_get_usage(), memory_get_usage(true), memory usage(from taskmgr), virtual memory usage(from taskmgr) 2131 330384 524288 - 1068Kb 5356Kb 4661 330384 524288 - 1148Kb 5440Kb 10974 330384 524288 - 1336Kb 5652Kb 24985 330384 524288 - 1824Kb 6140Kb 43894 330384 524288 - 2516Kb 6828Kb As you can see, memory usage is not constant.
