> You're creating a memory leak

A resource leak. That's assuming that you are referring to temp files not getting removed once the POST handler exits... which is not how it works.

https://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.post-meth...

    The file will be deleted from the temporary directory 
    at the end of the request if it has not been moved 
    away or renamed. 

> the internal rfc1867 uploaded files hash table.

This RFC does not talk about life cycle management of uploaded files at all, leave alone such specifics as hash tables.

Yikes, please don't go on tilt like this on HN, regardless of how frustrating a conversation has become.

Consider me impressed, you just posted here common sense and basic knowledge and yet triggered them hard. (Two comments in a row even.)

Is there a way to call Dang to have a look at those offensive comments? :-)
