there are over 30 mplayer processes on squeezebox server machine after
listen to NPR radio for a while. I am using a cron job to kill those
extra mplayer processes. Is there a better way, such as a patch to the
plugin itself?
below is the script in cron:
> #!/usr/bin/env python
> import subprocess
>
> max_running_mplayers=5
> process = subprocess.Popen(["ps", "-u", "111"],stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
>
> mplayer_pids=[]
> for line in process.stdout:
> list_pid=line.split()
> if list_pid[3]=="mplayer":
> mplayer_pids.append(list_pid[0])
>
> if len(mplayer_pids)>max_running_mplayers:
> del_pids=mplayer_pids[:-4]
> for pid in del_pids:
>
> subprocess.call(("kill","-9",pid))
>
