Mandriva has been bogging down lately to the point of being unusable.
top shows a program called mhonarc that is using 70% of memory.
Google search shows it is some kind of program that generates html
archives from various mail formats, which I have no idea where it came
from or how it got going. When I do a kill 4465 (the pid) it just
keeps going.
You could try kill -s KILL 4465 (sometimes the plain old kill command
doesn't really kill things...) Anybody have any elaborations on why
this works by the way? I've been using it for a while just because it
works, but don't really understand the differences between kill and kill
-s KILL. Thanks!
