Summary0000425: memory leak (around 40MB for each request) when using xdebug_start_trace
Description

When running the following code xdebug leaks 40MB of memory.

code start;
xdebug_start_trace(); // 1
{code to trace }
echo xdebug_peak_memory_usage(); // 2
xdebug_stop_trace(); // 3
code end;
Memory allocated by the above request is never returned to the heap.
As a result first the heap gets full and then the swap file, which results in a auto restart of the machine.

One remedy to this problem is actively monitoring the apache server an restarting when it consumes to much memory which is a temporary solution.

Memory leak doesn't happen when you comments the lines indicated bij 1,2,3.
