@Scott Ferguson:
5.6.0+dfsg-1+b1 is the current php-common version for Sid.
I haven't applied any patch to it. What I discuss as a possible problem origin is the Suhosin patch applied by the package maintainers. (Applying a patch of mine would solve the problem, but that would be washed away by the package flow in Sid. Also, it won't solve the problem at potential software users: I need a solution to describe for these.)
Squeeze and Wheezy PHP5 experience might not translate directly into Sid one, as the package maintainers have made meanwhile some changes (useful and needed ones, I think). Part of these changes is that /etc/php5/conf.d doesn't exist anymore - there are already separate /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d and /etc/php5/cli/conf.d. (Using a suhosin.ini there doesn't work, as well as posting the suhosin settings in the code or in any php.ini file.)
Maybe I need some counsel on what Suhosin patches the package maintainers apply, and is there another way to configure it besides fixing directly the code and recompiling it.
From what I have heard, php5-common carries a Suhosin patch that does few things (limiting RAM is one of them), but might not be configurable. The full patch, which is configurable, is said to be in php5-suhosin, but that breaks most other PHP packages, which I can't afford. Is there anyone around who would know something about this?
The 'server' is my home PC. 16G RAM, over 12 of them free and available to the process.
php -i | grep memory_limit returns "memory_limit => -1 => -1".
@Jerry Stuckle:
I looked through the phpinfo() output, but couldn't notice anything unusual.
Thanks again for the help!
