Description:
------------
Hi, Sirs,

I wrote a simple string manupluation script like this:

<?php
  error_reporting(E_ALL);
 
  $s = "A";
  for ($i = 0; $i < 27; $i++) {
    $s .= $s;
    echo "String with ".strlen($s)." bytes";
    echo "<br>";
  }
?>

and the result of the string size is growing to 128M, it's incredible, and I tried Mandrake 9.0 with PHP 4.2.3 , the result is ok.

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

2**27 == 128M, so no bug
