This would be more on sloppy code, which you can achieve by developing in any language, I have seen people crashing systems with runaway code that uses recursions and with connection pools.

I guess he's referring to PHP's garbage collection and the way circular references are handled as opposed to a leak where there's no way to recover the memory at all. Couple of relevant links http://blog.core10.co.uk/2004/09/php-5-garbage-collection.html http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30053 Would expect there's a definitive answer to be found from the <a href="http://nanoweb.si.kz">Nanoweb</a> developers.
