Description

Description

Run phpdbg on object has generator method causes memory leaks.
It does not occur when run with php command.


The following code:

<?php
class A
{
    private $s;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->s = str_repeat('a', 1000000);
    }

    public function iterate()
    {
        yield 1;
    }
}

for ($i=0; $i<1000000; $i++) {
    $arr = iterator_to_array((new A())->iterate());
}

var_dump('ok', memory_get_peak_usage(true));

Resulted in this output:

$ phpdbg -qrr zz.php
[PHP Fatal error:  Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 1003520 bytes) in /w/zz.php on line 8]

But I expected this output instead:

$ php zz.php
string(2) "ok"
int(2097152)
PHP Version

PHP 8.3.0

Operating System

Debian 12
