[resolved] how to set wp_max_memory_limit (4 posts)

    Hi!
    I'm a bit mad and I like to use the latest svn release of wordpress.

    I notice you're using WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT now, from http://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/17749

    How would I go about setting that?

    I run this wp instance on a small testing vm so it doesn't need much ram (far less than 256M) and i'd like to fix it at a lower setting.

    Cheers,

    From that page, it's defined in /wp-includes/default-constants.php

    if ( ! defined( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT' ) ) {
     		        define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );
     		    }

    so I would guess you can put this in your wp-config.php:

    define('WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '16M');

    Keep in mind that memory_limit in PHP is only an allowance for PHP -- if PHP doesn't need to use that much, then it won't. It's not actually allocating that amount for itself.
