print_r($request) causes out of memory error.
Hi,
When I do print_r($request); exit(); for my request.
I get the following error in my log:
[2017-09-06 15:19:44] production.ERROR: Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalErrorException: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 90181632 bytes) in [path to file reducted] Stack trace: #0 {main}
Why on earth would printing out the request array use so much memory? That can not be right can it?
This happens for all my requests, I am posting a simple string from a form. I am trying to print the request array right after getting into my controller.

Hi jack did that and all I got was:
array:5 [▼ "_token" => "string that I reducted" "user_id" => "1" "subject" => "Account Activation" "description" => "yolo" "q" => "/control/email" ]

My bad, I assumed that was what you meant by the request array, what info are you trying to get?
Level 2
Incidently I am not sure what is the q parameter. I do not put it there but it seems to be on all my requests but only in production not in development.

I am just trying to debug my app.
I was trying to save the data from the request to the database but I got an error on production because of the 'q' parameter that appears from nowhere.
In trying to debug I tried to print_r the request, but I got out of memory error and just wondering if its normal, I can imagine why print_r($request) would cause out of memory.

Are you using some kind of search in your application by any chance?
EDIT: Yeah the q value is coming from your form. Seems like its being passed in the query string, which is the result of a GET request.
Level 2
No

What does your form look like?

But I am not passing any q parameter, and it only happens in production not development, for the same code.
I wonder if its some sort of client side browser thing but I tried different browsers and get same result.

What does your form look like?
<form method="POST" action="https://www.mydomain/control/email" accept-charset="UTF-8" class="form-horizontal" id="email-user-form"><input name="_token" type="hidden" value="reducted">
<input id="user-id" name="user_id" type="hidden">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-md-3 control-label" for="subject">Subject</label>
<div class="col-md-9">
<input id="subject" class="form-control" placeholder="Email Subject" name="subject" type="text">
</div>
<span class="formerror"></span>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="col-md-3 control-label" for="message">Message</label>
<div class="col-md-9">
<textarea id="description" class="form-control" placeholder="Message Body" rows="3" name="description" cols="50"></textarea>
</div>
<span class="formerror"></span>
</div>
</form>

print_r tends to get itself in a recursion situation. Better to use dump() if you want execution to continue or dd() if you want it to stop

Yes you are right @Snapey it seems to be a normal and common thing.
