I’m using the WP_Overview plugin to view WordPress’ memory limit.<\/p>\n

It’s showing Mem: WP 32M (def) Usage 25% 32.59M of PHP Limit 128M<\/code>.<\/p>\n

However, in my functions.php<\/code>, I have the following line of code: define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT','96M');<\/code>.<\/p>\n

I’ve also installed the Change Memory Limit plugin and tried updating the figure from there, again to 96M.<\/p>\n

Despite this, the Overview plugin is still showing 32M.<\/p>\n

Three questions in one:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Which gets used, the PHP limit or the WP limit?<\/li>\n
  2. Is this plugin a good way of checking the limit, or should I try a different method?<\/li>\n
  3. Is this potentially a problem with WP 3.X? I found this post on WP Support which might imply that it is. Their solution suggests moving the PHP.INI<\/code> but I’m not particularly keen on doing that – surely it can’t be safe?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Thanks in advance,<\/p>\n
