How do you know the garbage collector was started? There is a (by default) 1% chance that upon each request to your server, garbage collection will be initiated. So, even though you have your time limit set for an hour, it could be longer than that before the actual 1% chance is triggered. It could take quite a while longer if there is not a whole lot of traffic to your site. ---John W. Holmes... PHP Architect - A monthly magazine for PHP Professionals.
