When generating large arrays (> 15,000 places) by copying mysql result rows php will not die after script exicution. I found this in running a large while loop and then copying over the row from the fetch_assoc that comes back. So for example

$query = select * from users; //about 20,000 rows with 26 
                              //data elements.
$result = mysql_query(......);

while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
 $users[$row["user_name"]] = $row;
}

This is from a command line script and when this is run, this will run every line to the bottom of the script but will not die. I have even kept adding print statements and it will exicute them, but will not stop. I have checked this with many scenarios and when the array is too large the application will not terminate. When i downloaded the new 4.2rc1 this problem isnt there though. Just thought you guys should know. Thanks alot,
