I didn't expect this script (throw-away) to be leaking and I haven't figured out what the culprit is. Can you spot anything? Although this is throw-away code, I'm concerned that I'll repeat this in the future. I've never had to manage memory in PHP, but with the number of rows in the db, it's blowing up my php instance (already upped the memory to 1Gb).
The california table is especially larger than the others (currently 2.2m rows, less as I delete duplicate rows). I get a memory error on line 31 ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res))
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 1073741824 bytes exhausted (tried to allocat e 24 bytes) in C:\Documents and Settings\R\My Documents\My Webpages\cdiac\cdiac_ dup.php on line 31
PHP 5.3.0, mysql 5.1.36. part of a wamp install.
here's the entire code. the purpose of this script is to delete duplicate entries (data was acquired into segmented tables, which was far faster at the time, but now I have to merge those tables.)
what's causing it? something I'm overlooking? or do I just need to watch the memory size and call garbage collection manually when it gets big?
