I don't quite understand what you mean by this daemon class that can make itself "eternal" and how this can turn the situation stable. Thanks, Ron ""J. Allen Dove"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schreef in bericht news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] FWIW, we have been running a number of very high-volume PHP CLI daemons for the last 18-20 months with great success. That is not to say it wasn't a challenge to get them as "stable" as a C++ daemon but we have. PHP 4.x CLI seemed to have a mem leak somewhere, PHP 5.x seems to have resolved that. However, a process running for a long time (yes, even on Linux) will also just "die" for no reason. We have a few hints as to what causes the deaths but don't know what causes the cause. To solve the problem we created a daemon class that has a lifetime and can make itself "eternal" if desired. The net effect is a stable daemon(s). We currently process 65-70MM transactions a day with our PHP-based daemons. We chose to try using PHP to share business logic and it paid off. -- Allen -----Original Message----- From: Ron Korving [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 06, 2005 2:49 AM To: internals@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DEV] CLI in PHP6 Hi, There was once (can't remember when exactly, so it must be a long time ago) here on PHP CLI scripts in which it came forward that one should not rely on such a script to run forever. And it's true; the scripts sometimes magically and suddenly die. Now I have no clue where this instability (for lack of a better word) comes from, but could it be possible for this to be resolved for PHP6 so that PHP becomes an extremely viable solution for CLI daemon scripts?
