I was doing some tests with long-running scripts recently and noticed that 5.3 is leaking memory in cases where 5.2 wasn't.
Looks like there is bug report already: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=48781
PHP 5.3 was announced as more suitable for long-running scripts than 5.2 was, because of circular-references garbage collector.
But this bug undermines this. So, I believe this bug is a critical one. Should be a blocker for 5.3.3
Bug-report tells that this bug was assigned to Dmitry, but, as there were not comments from him, I am not even sure if he's actually aware of the problem.
Did anyone try to investigate the issue?
Hi Alexey,
I'll try to take care of it.
It's definitely a bug, however I'm not sure how to fix it yet.
(I've updated the bug report).
Thanks. Dmitry.
