Permanent link Hunting PHP memory leaks

PHP still serves us great, it's very stable and usually painless to work with. But this week I've spent some quality time with PHP 5.3 (alpha4-dev) since our long-running PHP command line scripts were (still) leaking memory…

So I reported my third memory leak in PHP today, bug #47038 (the older ones were bug #46889 in PHP 5.2.8 and bug #29838 in PHP 4.3.8). But it's great that the classic recursive reference memory leak has been fixed in 5.3!
