I'll add some docs but it works "as expected". The limit is per request/worker. If it is reached, the worker restarts and an error is logged.
You can use ini_set('memory_limit', 'value');
to change the limit dynamically (as usual), the limit is automatically reset to the one defined in php.ini
after the handling of each request.
Describe you feature request
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I see some people here talking about
memory_limit
. Some of them use-1
. Mine is by default set to128M
. At the moment I don't see any information about it on the website/documentation or in this repository. Thememory_limit
is a limit per request. Does this mean that it is the maximum memory for a worker too, because it is a long running request. What is the best value for it in production? What is the best value for it in a Docker container (maybe in combination with a Docker container memory limit)? Also, wouldn't it be nice if we can set it with an environment variable out of the box (e.g.PHP_MEMORY_LIMIT
orPHP_WORKER_MEMORY
).Describe the solution you'd like I want
memory_limit
covered in the documentation. Possibly I want to be able to set it using a environment variable without having to do much myself.Describe alternatives you've considered For now I consider setting
memory_limit
to-1
in production using a .ini file. I limit my Docker container to 384 MB or 512 MB.
