Description:
------------
I am experiencing a 'zend_mm_heap corrupted' in my Apache error logs. I have upgraded my server to the latest available with Yum and also upgraded to the latest 5.6 PHP.  This happens with an open source adserver that we developed using Laravel: https://github.com/greenrobotllc/adserver. On my site it is serving about 50K impressions per day and getting this error sporadically.

I am using PHP 5.6.28 with Opcache enabled. See my PHP info here: https://greenrobot.com/phpinfo.php.

I have noticed before that the errors will kind of pile up after awhile and I will be forced to restart Apache because the adserver has stopped working at all, which fixes it for awhile.

In addition to upgrading to the latest PHP 5.6 and Centos package versions, I upgraded my Laravel app to use Laravel 5.3.

Test script:
---------------
https://github.com/greenrobotllc/adserver

Expected result:
----------------
No zend errors.

Actual result:
--------------
'zend_mm_heap corrupted' in my Apache error logs.

I just experienced one of these pile up errors:

When I go to http://myadserver2.greenrobot.com/ the page is blank.

I have upgraded to PHP Version 5.6.30.

Same thing happens. Eventually the errors will pile up and require a restart of Apache.

I have upgraded to PHP 7.1.1. http://myadserver3.greenrobot.com/phpinfo.php

That was 5 days ago and I have not experienced this error again.
