This would make a very interesting article in the upcoming AMPeers.

I've run PHP daemons for some time (we're talking several weeks) without
any indication of memory leaks.  In fact, I even coded a timer in to
email me stats of the process so that I could keep an eye on it.  At the
end of a couple weeks, I brought the process down normally, and all
seemed good.

In fact, I'm looking to deploy another daemon in PHP.  This one will
accept considerable network traffic from a remote sensor (using FUID I
believe it will be) and then manipulate an inline Apache PHP via MySQL
for web page generation (yeah, it's crazy; it's an art project).
