# Memory limit errors
If composer shows memory errors on some commands:
PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of XXXXXX bytes exhausted <...>
The `memory_limit` ini value should be increased.
> **Note:** Composer internally increases the memory_limit to 512M.
> It is a good idea to create an issue for composer if you get memory errors.
Get current value:
php -r "echo ini_get('memory_limit').PHP_EOL;"
Increase limit with `php.ini` for a `CLI SAPI` (ex. `/etc/php5/cli/php.ini` for Debian-like systems):
; Use -1 for unlimited or define explicit value like 512M
memory_limit = -1
Or with command line arguments:
php -d memory_limit=-1 composer.phar <...>
