Are you sure it's Asterisk creating the zombie processes, not the
check_sip pinger in Nagios?
Nagios is extremely bad with high throughput and concurrency, and
check_sip is a wrapper around 'sipsak', which means it takes the full
Timer T1 * 64 to time out if the Asterisk server is truly not available
(about ~30-32 sec).

I'm monitoring Asterisk with Nagios. Nagios constantly alerts because of
too many zombie processes. I eventually had to disable the notification
for the alert but why does Asterisk create so many zombie processes,
I've see more than 30 at times and it generally stays in the 20s... just
seems unusual and wondering if it's harmful, thanks in advance.
