__destruct()

class SimplePie {
	__destruct ()
}

There is a bug in versions of PHP older than 5.3 where PHP doesn't release memory properly in certain cases. This issue is discussed further in the I'm getting memory leaks! page.

• Available since SimplePie 1.1.

<?php
for ($i = 1; $i < 10; $i++)
{
	$feed = new SimplePie();
	$feed->set_feed_url($url);
	$feed->init();
	$feed->handle_content_type();
	$item = $feed->get_item(0); 
 
	$feed->__destruct(); // Do what PHP should be doing on it's own.
	unset($feed); 
 
	echo "Memory usage: " . number_format(memory_get_usage()); 
}
?>
