please ask questions on the php-general list, this list had been created
for discussing PHP syntax and language desing issues and is not really
in use currently ...

that said: what you are looking for is shared memory access:

   http://php.net/shmop   -> for raw access
   http://php.net/sem     -> for variables in shared memory
                             and for locking (using semaphores)
