[xdebug-general] PHP5 DOM memory coverage

Derick - I'm sending this to you directly too because I sent to the list but
didn't see it come through to me, although I've been getting other emails
from the list. :(

Hello all:

I'm seeing memory usage numbers in xdebug which don't make sense.  We're using
the PHP5 DOM extension  to load a file.  The files themselves are easily over
200k, yet after doing a domdocument->load, I see no significant change

    0.1480    4723008     +536             ->
DOMDocument->load() /data/web/root/cms/tisco/live/ses_core-4.5.101/application/cms4_module_salescatalog/classes/ActionProcessor.clss:824
    0.1489    4722896 +4294967184             ->
XSLTProcessor->importStylesheet() /data/web/root/cms/tisco/live/ses_core-4.5.101/application/cms4_module_salescatalog/classes/ActionProcessor.clss:824

Additionally, as you can see, when the memory usage goes down, the delta is
+4gig.  But that's not why I'm writing.  :)

That DOMDocument->load() was loading a file that was probably 220k, yet xdebug
is only reporting a change of 536 bytes in memory usage.

Is there something else I need to setup to track DOM memory usage?  Is this a
known (or unknown?!) issue with xdebug?

Thanks!  :)
