- Subject: How threads becomes zombie-processes
Hi there,
Having incoorporated Jessie in my application, I've run into a problem:
For each https-request received, three new threads are left behind as
"zombie processes" (<defunct>).
Sooner or later, I reckon that the system process table is filled and
the applications need being restarted. I would like to avoid this :-)
Hence my question: Is there a way a thread in gcj can become a zombie
thread? E.g. by stop()'ing (deprecated), or similar?
If so I would know what to look after in Jessie...
I'm running GCJ 3.4.3...
BR,
Martin Egholm
