hello everyone,

I hope you can help with this problem.

I'm writing a php application that indexes web pages. unfortunately the application runs for about an hour and a half before windows shuts down the localhost web server as too much virtual memory is being used.
I don't know about such things so I've posted this thread in beginners section.

the questions i hope you can help with are these:-
1) what causes windows to allocate more virtual memory to a php script?
2) what can be done to stop (free up) this memory during script execution?

hope you can help

thanks
