experimenting,
etc.
Counting memory all the time adds a fair amount of overhead to script
execution especially given how frequently PHP needs to allocate memory.
Therefore usage memory utilization functions are only available when
PHP is compiled with memory in which case it keeps track of its mem usage.
That may hear off topic , but how you enable something else than 8M
*without* getting this counting overhead ?
It looks to me that --enable-memory-limit mixes 2 independant roles :
- setting the amount of available memory, and enabling eventually local
setting,
- enabling the evaluation of the process consumption.
I would like to be wrong on this :)
