Check memory_get_usage() to see what PHP is using, my guess is that there is a copy of the data in c-client and another for PHP. Immediately after that line has executed I'm assuming the c-client version is released.

I assume you mean if I enable Zend Memory. If you check the Old test 
run where USE_ZEND_ALLOC=1 you can see PHP is cleared the memory 
successfully after an unset.

However, the resident memory (RSS) remains high. Its almost like c-
client keeps the email data in memory without flushing the memory.

Again, this is a huge problem with systems that do not have a lot of 
free memory. Is there any way to flush the memory without exiting the 
script?

I'll try posting the URL again... the 't' is missing at the end of 
the line.
