looking at top I am seeing a lot of processes with state of piperd.

Piperd means the process is waiting on a read from a pipe.  You can use
lsof to determine what process is at the other end of the pipe (run
lsof, find your process, find the PIPE fd, then find the other process
with the same 0xXXXXXXXX value).


Excellent, thank you. May I ask where you found that info. I looked but came up empty. I'd like to know the meanings of some other states not mentioned in the man pages. Such as nanslp, *GIANT, kqread, etc.

Thanks,

DAve

Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a
logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos
for other non-international holidays, but nothing for
Veterans?

Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
