Known limitations Crash recovery uses a shutdown handler to write a disable flag and queue a sanitized crash report. In rare PHP memory-exhaustion fatals, there may be too little memory left for the shutdown handler to run. When that happens, the site still recovers on the next request, but the disable flag and crash report may be skipped for that request.
