Symfony 1.3 with Propel 1.5: Memory issues

Question

Exploring every avenue with an issue I'm currently experiencing.

I have a site that uses Symfony 1.3 with Propel, using the 1.5 plugin. I find that my application is chewing through memory at an alarming rate. Each instance is using 100-250 megs of memory.

I was getting "Allowed memory size" reached errors until I upped the allocated memory size in php.ini to 256M. That's considerably more than I'd expect to need for this application.

My old version of the same site that used Symfony 1.0 and Propel 1.3 typically used a quarter to one half as much memory for each instance.

Any suggestions on where there might be a setting in error, perhaps a checklist for memory optimization?

Answer 1

This page gives some pointers.

Google seems to translate it rather correctly

Answer 2

You should update to Propel 1.6.3 IMO ;)
