It's set to bogus because it's not a bug, but rather a deliberate choice. "Kilobyte" meaning a 1024 multiplier is the most commonplace definition, so it's also the definition used in PHP's manual. You can create whatever definitions you want as long as you're consistent. According to Daniel's Standard Committee (which I founded two minutes ago and I'm the chairman of) defines one kilobyte to be the amount of bytes corresponding to Graham's number ran through the Ackermann function. I think we should start using that definition instead. tl;dr, there are conflicting definitions, you're upset that we chose the one you don't support and that we won't change it. -- Daniel Egeberg
