[wp-testers] a fatal error when publishing a post

[Zhao Qianli]

I recieved  a answer from Dreamhost, they upgraded PHP 5.1.2 to
5.2including a new memory restriction, so...... :

The problem you experienced was due to us upgrading PHP 5 last night from
> 5.1.2 to 5.2, which also included a new memory restriction. We're trying
> to implement it for better server stability. It looks like your WP
> process was trying to use an excessive amount of memory and it errored
> out. Do you have an custom plugins on your WP installs? They may need to
> be removed in the future.
