in reference to this:

the line:
$trace = print_r( debug_backtrace( false, 2), true );
actually deadlocks my php script. That is, the whole application becomes unresponsive, the browser keeps spinning, the debug just jumps into nothing, like, goodbye debug. I can still open the phpmyadmin that runs on the same server, but not the application any longer. The application is actually a slim application that runs in a wordpress installation. Both is unresponsive, no response.
is that eventually because the the variables are too complex to be output?
i have some very complex objects, mainly because i use a plugin that has very complex objects see pods.io and those pods objects are known to crash things when tried to get output having said that, i think it is quite likely too that slim is causing the crash, because their objects and function call chains are not super short neither.
is there a way to avoid the deadlock?
