<p><ahref="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pozna%C5%84">Poznán</a> is a city on the Warta river in west-central Poland. It is best known for its renaissance Old Town and Ostrów Tumski Cathedral. Poznań is among the oldest and largest cities in Poland. It has often topped rankings as a city with very high quality of education and a very high standard of living. Giving the stability this 8th anniversary version 1.11.6 has achieved and its high benefits to education, we believe Poznán is a fitting name for us.</p>

<h1>Core contributors / Core team</h1>
<p>The core contributors are the people who contributed most to the Chamilo software in the past. We are eternally thankful to them for having demonstrated a very high level of commitment, contributing their time and ideas to the project. Since version 1.9, we also include non-developer contributors as we consider their help is essential to the success of our project. This list is updated with each version.</p>

<h2><aname="7.High-numbers-memory"></a>Memory considerations for high numbers of users</h2>
<h2><aid="7.High-numbers-memory"></a>Memory considerations for high numbers of users</h2>
Some administration scripts *have to* handle lists of all users, and this might have a considerable impact on portals with very high numbers of users. For example, the main/admin/add_users_to_session.php script that handles the registration of users into a specific session, if used with the (non-default) full list of users, will devour about 3KB per user, which, for 100,000 users, translates into the need for around 300MB of RAM just to show this page, and to around 3GB for 1,000,000 users.<br/>
This mode is not loaded by default, but could still be selected, leading to a "Fatal error: Allowed memory size ... exhausted" message.<br/>
The only non-scripted solution here is to allow for the corresponding amount of RAM for your PHP configuration (<em>memory_limit = 300M</em>) or your specific VirtualHost if you use mod-php5 (<em>php_value memory_limit 300M</em>).<br/>
