>Description:
Sometimes apache begins to write the apache_error_log full of the following
error message:
httpd in free(): warning: recursive call.
When this occurs, it writes until the log partition is full... The load goes
to the top... the last message is something like this:
couldn't allocate 30 bytes... 

>How-To-Repeat:
This problem usually occurs under heavy load of the apache, with mainly php
scripts using mysql persistent connections. I've noticed, that it's easier to
reproduce this error, if the physical memory is getting full, and it begins
swapping.


>Fix:
No idea.
