Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php You simply get an integer overflow. The maximum range is from -2gb to +2gb-1. 2048M is just above this limit so it overflows.
