Drush scripts (especially bulk node processing) are subject to hitting
PHP memory limits when processing large amounts of data.

Anyone have ways around that issue?

Again: batching. Even tasks that are run with drush need to be worked off in chunks.

PHP's just not made for managing memory.

I think drush scripts are your best bet. CLI PHP is not not subject to timeout.

Hi,
I'm reading contradicting posts about running Batch API processes on cron.
This is for Drupal 6 BTW.
I have tried implementing a batch functionality that should be run on cron,
but it doesn't seem to process the work that needs to be done.
I assume this is because running the cron through a commandline command
doesn't allow for javascript...
So my questions:
- Have I implemented Batch API incorrectly, and should it normally work also
on cron?
- What is the best way to run a process that would normally trigger a php
script timeout? Can I use the Queue module for that?
I'm sure plenty of people have already tried doing this, so I'm not sure why
I can find little consistent information about it.
Thanks for your feedback.
Sven
