Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Gerco Ballintijn (gballintijn) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Threaded renderer doesn't cleanup child processes Initial Comment: The threaded renderer uses the Unix pipe/fork paradigm (synfig-core/src/synfig/renderer.cpp, line 402) to distribute the workload over multiple processes. However, it does not use the wait() system call to clean up (zombie) child processes. Since the threaded renderer can fork a significant number of processes, a significant number of zombie processes can be left hanging as long as the main synfig process runs. Note: the zombies are obviously cleaned up after the main synfig process exits. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=757416&aid=2780649&group_id=144022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensign option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Synfig-devl mailing list Synfig-devl@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/synfig-devl
