For anyone that might be following this thread because they also
have a memory problem (on a 64 bit platform or not), here is some
advice on how to alleviate it:
- Use a bytecode cacher like xcache. Brought my 12MB pages down
to about 5MB.
- If using php from a pre-compiled binary (like from Ubunutus
repository), consider re-configuring it manually to drop
extensions you don't need.
- If using Doctrine, always use its free() method to free up
memory after you are done with each object.
Doesn't everyone on this list compile from source with only the
extensions they need? Sheeeesh, what's the world coming to.
:)
I don't, well I do compile my own, but as the needed extensions
sometimes change, I only load the extensions I actually want to use,
with a handy php-foo package which installs the extension and the
necessary ini snippet into /etc/php.d/ folder.
Very flexible :) This is how RH and Mandriva RPMs are arranged, it's
a pretty good system IMO. No idea how Ubuntu does it but i'd be
surprised if they just ship a big bunch of libraries and extensions
in one package with just a bug ini file...
Its the same in Ubuntu, but the 'main' php package comes with SOME
extensions added, but not all. Mostly only smaller ones. If you want
mysql support for example, then you apt-get php5-mysql.
I heart apt-get.
