Runtime Configuration

The behaviour of these functions is affected by settings in php.ini.

PCRE Configuration Options
Name Default Changeable Changelog
pcre.backtrack_limit "100000" PHP_INI_ALL Available since PHP 5.2.0.
pcre.recursion_limit "100000" PHP_INI_ALL Available since PHP 5.2.0.
For further details and definitions of the PHP_INI_* constants, see the php.ini directives.

Here's a short explanation of the configuration directives.

pcre.backtrack_limit integer

PCRE's backtracking limit.

pcre.recursion_limit integer

PCRE's recursion limit. Please note that if you set this value to a high number you may consume all the available process stack and eventually crash PHP (due to reaching the stack size limit imposed by the Operating System).
