Source Module - Allowed Memory Exhausted Error

Issue with undo_htmlspecialchars() ?

On the source module, when trying to update a repo, it's giving me the following error:
"Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 24 bytes) in /.../activecollab/angie/functions/general.php on line 590"

I traced down the issue and it's the undo_htmlspecialchars() method. I tried rewriting it a little to see what would happen and it passed the problem down to the class/xml/xml2array.php and threw the same error. Any ideas?

Hello,

System is hitting a memory limit. How big is the commit that system is trying to import? You can temporally up the memory limit (to 124MB for example) until that particular revision information is imported, and than revert back to 64MB.

Thanks that did it. FOr reference to anyone else in the php.ini file the "memory_limit" line needs to be increased (as opposed to max upload limit or post limit)
