I would love it if someone else using Itanium would tell me if they
do/don't see this.
My guess is similar to Tony's.
The child process does disappear after the execute.
Here's a snippet from where I monitored one of my problem processes (pid
5783) by looping 1x/sec:
"date; ps -flu cds33896|grep -v pts/| grep -e 5783"
You can see the child caught at various stages of execution.
Notice that the SZ column for the parent grows.
Notice that the parent's memory is duplicated(?) for the child.
I edited out a few columns to make it easy to read in an email:
F S UID PID PPID SZ STIME TIME COMD
