Increase PHP_MEMORY_LIMIT beyond 512MB

[tannertechnology]

Hello,

Why can the PHP memory limit only be decreased? We have tens of GB assigned to our instance, how can we bypass this?

I am running the Debian image. When I review the output of phpinfo(), I see that memory_limit is set to 1024m. This documentation says 512m. Because of this, I don't trust the documentation.

What's your value for memory_limit? What happens if you increase it?
