Where does PHP5 allow parameters by reference: in the function definition,

No, not if you use it in both -- only if you use it when calling the
function.

Which causes a bigger surge in memory usage, including() a file with a
large array or unserializing the same information after its been
serialized?

Here is one,

If I _do not_ want to suppress warnings in include(...), (in other word
not use @include(...))
Why is file_exists(... ) alone not a good option.
How would you check if a file exists for inclusion.

good one...i'd love to know the correct answers for these. my guess would be
a higher spike when unserializing.

google is great...file_ex ists seems to be tied with open_basedir limits in
php.ini.

This error message indicates that the path to your home directory is not
included in allowed paths specified by open_basedir parameter in php.ini
file. open_basedir limits the files that can be opened by PHP to the
specified directory and all included subdirectories. Thus, PHP script is
trying to read a file which is not found in the specified path and the error
occurs.

One way to solve the problem is to include your home directory path in the
path list that PHP is allowed to open, specified by open_basedir. For
example, the following setting indicates that PHP script can read files
located in /home/vhosts, /usr/share/php/pear/ and /tmp folders:

open_basedir =/home/vhosts:/usr/share/php/pear/:/tmp

Another solution is to disable open_basedir restriction and allow open
access to all directories. By default all files are allowed to be opened by
PHP script.

That's too easy.
Just use the filesystem functions.
