Network page does not load content, &amp;quot;eternal swirl syndrome&amp;quot;

Network page does load, but then remains swirling without loading content
If you enable php logging you find messages like
PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 46504056 bytes) in /var/www/hubzilla/include/network.php on line 200

The reason for this may be that due to images etc. within the network stream, the system's php memory_limit gets exhausted before the script that populates the network page can finish. Accordingly it may be possible that you can access messages for example filtered by forum, but not the whole page.
The solution is for the sysadmin to increase the value in php.ini.

; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)                       
; http://php.net/memory-limit                                                   
memory_limit = 128M

Don't forget to reload the services after that.
If you want to make sure this is the issue, enable php logging, see dedicated FAQ entry.
