That's the thing though, as a script writer I can't disable that option, I don't see why it's not setable by script, all other session options are. Sure I can distribute a message saying to ask your host to disable this if it's on, but that's not very effective. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-28 16:26:57] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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 Yes it would. Not only does it force increased memory allocation but is also causes parser to go through the data. This can be quite slow, while on a small output couple of kb it may be too small to notice on large files you'll definately feel the impact. If you don't like the performance loss disable that option. This is not a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-28 16:23:23] grandadmirale at yahoo dot com Yes it's on... but would it really slow it down THAT MUCH? I will try turning it off on one of the servers tested on, but this becomes a problem since it's not an option for people to turn it off since it's not changeable via script... which might be a good thing to change, I don't really see it presenting a problem, any good php script adds the sessid itself to the url anyways. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-28 15:25:02] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Are you using session.use_trans_sid if so that would explain the performance drop. Since php would need to buffer the entire output of the script and pass it through a parser that would add a session id to every URL. This would explain why outputing longer text would get progressively slower. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-28 09:11:13] grandadmirale at yahoo dot com Yes, the two servers I tested on have sessionn.use_trans_sid enabled, I am unsure of the third since it is not my server. Neon, two of the three servers tested on have next to no traffic, server load is not a possibility. ESPECIALLY since the slowdown is consistant, happens every time at the same point. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-28 08:16:40] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Does the server's have "session.use_trans_sid" enabled? (check with e.g. 'echo ini_get("session.use_trans_sid");' or from phpinfo() output) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
