The European union does such a good job advertising it still nobody
understands it ;)

There was a fixed exchange rate at the time Germany converted. I'm sure
can look it up somewhere. The same goes for the other Euro-countries.

That should not be a problem then. I use postfix, and I've certainly
had up to 30.000 emails queued without any slow downs.

It sounds like maybe you are back to what someone suggested - due to the
many emails (which is very suspect) you're delivering over SMTP, your
connection is being tarpitted or otherwise artificially slowed down.

What I don't understand is how the same can apply if you just
use /usr/sbin/sendmail to deliver them. That way they should just go
straight in the queue and nothing should be able to slow down that
process - it's just writing a file to disk after all.

I would go back to using sendmail (instead of SMTP), and when the
slowdown begins, I would attach an strace to see what's really going
on.

You can read about apache's mod_include and its echo element.

This should work as expected.

<?php
$f = fopen("file.txt", "r");
stream_encoding($f, "iso-8859-1");
?>

Hi all,

    I have a php - postgresql program which bombs with a statement that
it has run out of memory. I am running php 5.1.6 and postgres
8.3.something. My program bombs, saying that it fails to allocate
memory, when it is loading an SQL query result into a php array using
pg_fetch_all. The SQL query works fine when I run it in psql. I am
running php with a process limit size of 16M. Some of the time this
query works, sometimes it dies. It is my impression that it dies after
I have been running the php application for a while -- like there is
memory that isn't being cleared up. But that is only an impression!

    What could be going wrong?

Does anyone know if any of the PHP 5 XML libraries use flock() internally?
I'd like to use XMLReader and XMLWriter but I need to make sure theres no
writing going on while reading and no more than one writer at time. And if
I have to use DOM, does DOM lock the file when it calls save()?

Or is there any xml library that allows you to pass in an already opened
file stream ?

Thanks.
