Well, you could try to check your usage on various points in the script with
memory_get_usage(), and check what is causing it. You might be able to do things
more effeciently.

Number one protection against out-of-memory errors is descent code, but even
descent code may need more. If you truly need more memory, you should up the
memory limit.
