Not saying it's not possible: from where I am in 2020, long-lived PHP 7.4 processes still exhibit the described symptoms (memory leaks, even segfaults). In other words, tools for the job.

Memory leaks don't surprise me. Segfaults do.

Have you reported them upstream? That implies a memory safety or garbage collection bug.

Yup, GC bugs, mostly; some fixed, some are hard to repro...
