I'm using PHP to run a CLI application. It's a script run by cron thatparses some HTML files (with DOM XML), and I ended up using PHP to integrate with
 the rest of the code that already runs the website.
 
 The problem is: it's eating more memory than a black hole. It eats the
 current limit of 256MB set in php.ini, in an application that would hardly
 consume 4MB if written in C. I don't care if this application takes much longer
 to run than it would in C, but eating that much memory is not acceptable.
 
 So, my question is, how do I find out what is eating that much memory?
 I'm suspicious of memory leaks, or very stupid garbage collection. Any help?
