It should be pretty much impossible for phpa to leak memory, and I've tested
it with various memory testing tools in the past when verifying its
behaviour. However, phpa can allocate a large amount of memory while caching
code and optimising code, and the amount consumed could be reduced. I'll
review this for release 1.2p4 in addition to the other changes that I'm
making, and if I can make safe changes then I'll do this.
