dstolAs a work around, you may want to up the memory limit.
Comment #2
y.anvesh commentedIts not the problem with memory limit.
If no. of nodes are huge, the latest version is not working.
Earlier version working fine for same no. of nodes
Comment #3
abs commentedConfirming the issue. The problems happens with nodes with multiple terms and multiple vocabularies. The exhaustion happens even on vocabulary edit page (even when menu is not actually active for given vocabulary), in Kontext module etc. Downgrade did help.
Comment #4
dstolWhat's the memory limit on your server?
Comment #5
johnvHmm, IMO (in D7) the root cause is the fact that the menu system (unnecessarily) loads every object in the menu.

But abs (#3) says "Downgrade did help"...
