Memory problem since 1.11.0

[JoniJnm]

Hi,

I'm using a Dockerfile to run a symfony application

I'm installing APM with:

ARG APM_VERSION="v1.10.0/apm-agent-php_1.10.0_all.deb"
RUN set -e; \
    curl -s -L -o /tmp/apm-agent.deb https://github.com/elastic/apm-agent-php/releases/download/${APM_VERSION}; \
    apt install /tmp/apm-agent.deb; \
    rm -f /tmp/apm-agent.deb

All works OK, but when I upgrade to 1.11.0 I have memory problems

I can't reproduce the problem outside my project I can't share it (it's not my project, the owner is a company).

Let me share the output depending on the APM version installed and some APM config:

We have the same issue with 1.13.0 and PHP 8.3.

[JoniJnm]

@SebaGnich does it works with 1.10.0?

[SebaGnich]

@JoniJnm With 1.10 and PHP 8.2 it worked, yes

[intuibase]

Steps to reproduce
set in ini:

memory_limit = 128M

run this code in cli:

for($i = 0; $i < 10000000; $i++) {
	try {
		throw new ErrorException("This is exception");
	} catch (Exception $e) {
	}
}

var_dump(memory_get_peak_usage());

[JoniJnm]

when you will create a new release with this fix?

[intuibase]

Hey @JoniJnm
Did you tried latest release? The fix is included from 1.13.1
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/php/master/release-notes-v1.13.1.html

Please let us know if it fixed issue for you

[JoniJnm]

Oh, I didn't see it. Trying, thanks.

[JoniJnm]

Oh, I know why.

Something is wrong in the changelog page:

• https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/php/1.x/release-notes.html
• https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/php/master/release-notes.html
