Garbage collection problem?

[petermichaux]

Hi,

When I run either of the following scripts it runs to completion and
prints "end" if $limit<=1e4. If $limit>=1e5 then somewhere after many
loops the script stops and I do not see the final message "end". Is
there garbage I should be collecting? Am I hitting a type limit? Do php
scripts have any other limit that I might be hitting?

I'm confused!

Thanks,
Peter

Is the web browser just not willing to wait longer? Same results in
Firefox and Safari.

Or are you hitting the php timeout limit (default 30 seconds)?
