保持我的DOMDocument / DOMXpath PHP脚本不会占用内存？

Question

Made this script to crawl certain links on a forum and extract the username, post date, and post number.

It works great, the only problem is that it hogs memory and after about a half hour it slows down significantly.

Does anyone have suggestions to speed it up? I've been running a WGET on my server to start the script.

Thanks, Nick

You might want to take a look at mysql_free_result. Also, the fact that you are maintaining a $return array thorough the whole script doesn't help. If you want to avoid memory issues, you should crawl a dozen records, insert them, reset $return, crawl a dozen more, insert, reset... and so on. Otherwise, the $return array gets huge, and that's probably is one of the causes (if not the cause) of your problem.
