New Comment:
So where is the leak itself?
Configure PHP with --enable-memory-limit and use memory_get_usage() to
see PHPs memory usage.
Btw, PHP uses Zend memory manager which *reports* about memleaks and
cares about them on his own. So, in case of memleak you'll see an error
message.

Description:
------------
Encountering a memory leak, possibly in date/time related code.
Running this script:
=================================================================
<?php
// tell us about all errors.
error_reporting(E_ALL);
define ("START_YEAR", 1971);
define ("END_YEAR", 2038);
function test_strtotime($request) {
for ($i=1; ; $i++) {
// start at year START_YEAR, bail out at year END_YEAR
$tStamp = mktime (17,17,17,1,$i,START_YEAR);
if (date("Y", $tStamp) == END_YEAR) break;
$strtotime_timestamp = strtotime ($request, $tStamp);
if (strftime("%r %B %d %Y", $strtotime_timestamp) != date ("h:i:s A
F d Y", $strtotime_timestamp)) {
print "Mismatch: $i $tStamp\n";
}
}
}
$days = array ("Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday",
"Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday");
for ($i=1; $i<500; $i++) {
putenv("TZ=Australia/Sydney");
foreach ($days as $day) {
test_strtotime($day);
}
}
?>
=================================================================
What's different to various other scripts I've run before to test
date/time code is this line:
> if (strftime("%r %B %d %Y", $strtotime_timestamp) != date ("h:i:s A F
d Y", $strtotime_timestamp))
So, something about this may possibly be the culprit.
Here's what I see on a Linux box whilst running this:

After 14 minutes the box was thrashing to disk and was extremely slow
to respond. Suspending the script (ctrl-Z), and checking the output of
'top' showed that php was using around a gigabyte of RAM:

this in the kernel log:
