I have a Drupal installation with about 20 vocabularies and over 13 000 terms. Taxonomy defaults administration page causes PHP out of memory error when memory_limit for PHP is set to 64M. This is the only module out of about 50 on this site that is causing out of memory errors.

Similar problem here, with a PHP memory_limit of 80M and slightly smaller taxonomy.

Similar problem here; also get "MySQL has gone away" errors. Would it be possible to break up the defaults page by content type? That way, it wouldn't have to load all at once.

@Evan - Thanks for the suggestion. I just became the maintainer of this module and have just started thinking about what direction to take it (it has a few fundamental problems that need refactoring to resolve) , but I'll take this into consideration as I begin moving forward.

Thanks for the quick reply.

It might also work if you could specify a single vocabulary to use as the default vocabulary. That way, it wouldn't have to load all those other terms.

Version: 5.x-1.x-dev » 6.x-1.x-dev
Priority: Critical » Minor

I'd like to tweak the admin page to handle this case better, and to be more usable, but this is an edge case and not "critical".

Given that this is an edge case and that this module will be mostly deprecated by Drupal 7 (see #610268: Upgrade path for Taxonomy Defaults (D6) to core field defaults (D7)), I'm not going to fix this.

Quick addition: I haven't experienced this issue with the D6 release; however, I'm running all D6 sites with a php memory limit between 128M und 200M.

Thanks for this module!
