I'm sort of thinking the same thing because of the following ... My app is actually a chat server based on fortress and I could see today it's threads (and the only ones I know of are from Event package) going zombie even if this server hasn't done anything today - not even one client connection came...It was idle, waiting for client connections for whole day, and even in this inactive state threads were going zombie. So I asked myself what is active in it if it's not processing client connections, and the only answer I could find is - some internal scheduler maybe who checks periodically for incoming commands to be processed by worker threads (thread pool) ?
