Nope, it's still cleared at the end of the request (as it should be, this is not a bug or mis-feature, and is actually one of the things PHP got right for scalable apps).

What doesn't happen compared to CGI, IIRC, is loading the whole PHP engine from the start for every invocation. But no request specific memory is ever shared between invocations.
