Re: [PHP] Negative memory_get_usage() Values

What version of PHP and what OS?

I *think* that there is some jiggery-pokery going on in
memory_get_usage() in PHP 5 and managed memory where it would make
perfect sense to get negative numbers occasionally...

You may also want to log the memory_get_usage inside the loop, and
then graph the memory usage as it goes up/down to get a better idea of
what's going on.

Hey gang,

I'm getting a negative return value from memory_get_usage() using the
following script. My I've got --enable-memory-limit enabled and my
memory_limit is set to 100MB (which should more than enough memory).

I suspect that there is a bug in utf8_encode() but I'd like others to
test it (on different platforms) before I submit it as a bug.

<?php

for ($i=0; $i < 20000; $i++) {
echo utf8_encode('This is a test');
}

echo memory_get_usage();

?>
