I can see the need, and what problem you're trying to solve. I think focusing on 'memory to be used by shutdown handlers' is slightly more specific than a solution needs to be. Just expressing it as, when PHP fails to allocate some memory due to reaching the limit then: * Increase the memory limit by an ini setting defined amount. This only happens once per request/process. * Throw an EngineException. should cover what you want to do, without tying the solution to where that memory can be used. One of the reasons I haven't submitted an RFC for that already is that I'm not sure what would be involved in making sure it was safe to throw an exception from places where the memory allocation could fail. FYI possibly of interest, I did some investigation of a related feature a while ago, allowing people to trigger callbacks when the memory limit was reached: https://github.com/Danack/MemTrigger which is terribly out of date and a bad approach anyway, due to the performance hit, and people only really caring about hitting the memory limit. cheers Dan Ack -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
