By the way, one more thing: I have three sites running on this
server - staging, live and an old keepalive instance. The live site
is the only one exhibiting the scheduled proc problem; it's also the
only one that gets any significant traffic. So I'm thinking it's
some kind of overflow where it only causes problems when a busy site
is using memory and ends up overwriting something.

In addition to the below, there are at least two of us over at
openacs.org reporting that scheduled procs stopped firing over the
weekend. I have one site left on 3.3+ad13 and the other guy says
he has 3.2+ad12.
This site hasn't been upgraded because the client didn't want to
upgrade, so any pointers on fixing this would be greatly appreciated.

I've experienced this problem over the weekend on half a dozen
servers in three different locations:
After starting up, AOLserver (mostly 3.4.2, also a 3.5.11) begins
allocating a lot of virtual memory. When I follow the process in
top, the virtual memory counter (but not real memory) rapidly
increases over the course of 10 to 20 seconds, until it hits the
limit of 3 GB virtual memory in user space on x86 Linux boxes. The
process then crashes with this message:
nsthread(3094) error: pthread_create failed in NsThreadCreate:
Cannot allocate memory
(The process is then restarted by supervise/svscan.)
I couldn't find a fix for the problem and had to migrate to
AOLserver 4.0.10 (we had already planned this for next month)
immediately. But I find it a bit weird that practically every
AOLserver 3 installation that I know of encounters this problem
over the same weekend. Just bad luck? Date sensitive code?
