Of the various methods to increase the PHP memory limit, the only one I can use for a certain site is ini_set('memory_limit', 'XXXM'); in settings.php.

This value does not appear to change the memory_limit shown in phpinfo(). However, I know it is actually being modified because the site breaks without it.

Is there another way to view the current memory limit OR the actual memory limit ceiling?

    You are probably calling phpinfo() before settings.php. What if you use the built-in phpinfo() linked in the Status Report? /admin/reports/status/php

    Also, some hosts may not allow you to change it above a certain amount.
