Maybe it has been fixed. 
 
Take this: 
 
$a[5][1000] 
and  
$b[1000][5] 
 
Which uses more memory? Even though, conceptually, they have the same number of 
elements, $b is FAR more 
inefficient. 
 
AFAIK there are no "multidimentional" arrays in PHP, but the ability to create arrays 
of arrays, which 
while similar in syntax, are different in implementation.
