Allowed memory size of X bytes exhausted by Julien Pauli at the PHP Benelux Conference 2013
Every PHP programmer has already met such an error, haven't you ?
This talk is about understanding memory management in PHP. We'll first define what memory is with some recall about heap and stack. We'll then dive into PHP's source code to introduce and detail the component responsible of memory : Zend Memory Manager.
We'll see together how it works, and above all how to customize it and master it from PHP code. Some practical use case may be provided, such as how to master your PHP variables for them not to be too memory greedy, as well as some tools to help mastering memory in PHP scripts and apps.
Presented on January 25, at the PHP Benelux Conference 2013.
