> but this is not a bug
what is it then?
why can't I use memory_get_usage() + ini_set('memory_limit',xxx) to
check for memory leaks in my code?
do I just give up and ini_set('memory_limit',4GigaBytes) and never give
a damn about memeory?

Description:
------------
the following code fails with
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 587896 bytes exhausted (tried to
allocate 262145 bytes)
command:
php.exe -n -f memuse.php
memuse.php:
@ob_end_flush();
@ob_implicit_flush(1);
define('big_size',256*1024);
define('saftey',4*1024);
ini_set('memory_limit',memory_get_usage()+big_size*2+saftey);
$big = str_repeat('x',big_size);
yet if I change big_size to 1024*1024, then it works?
and a simlar script
@ob_end_flush();
@ob_implicit_flush(1);
define('big_size',200*1024);
define('saftey',4*1024);
ini_set('memory_limit',memory_get_usage()+big_size+saftey);
echo str_repeat('x',big_size);
also fails, yet if I change big_size to 180*1024 then it works?
PS, note that in the first script I set mem limit to 2 times big_size,
and in the 2nd script I did not.
