Good question -- I don't remember.  I'll just bet a
quick look at the mailing list...
... hmm.  Maybe it was announced on the PLT list?

Well now, that's just because we don't have as good
an implementation of the Sieve as the PHP team:

#!/usr/local/bin/php -f Count: 1028

It's a bug in the scoring.  If a test fails to match
the expected output, it's supposed to be tossed.  I
had this turned off to debug something and the data on
the site right now is a bit skewed because of this.

You will also notice that nobody has any meaningful
memory use scores.  I haven't had a chance to shut
everything down on my system and run in "no swap" mode
to do the measurements.
