I recently posted mentioning that I was getting out of memory (oom)
errors with FC4 kernels 1656 and 1831 on both x86_64 and i686 version of
the kernel.

I have simple Bash shell scripts (first line has #!/bin/bash) that seem
to start up many unicode_start processes, but it doesn't occur every
time I run the scripts. I haven't been able to figure out what triggers
this behavior. The script that I believe caused the problem in my prior
post is one that cleans up a source directory hierarchy.
#!/bin/bash
# Checking to see if your home directory exists.
TOP_DIR=$HOME
if test ! -d $TOP_DIR; then
echo ERROR: Directory $TOP_DIR does not exist!
exit
fi
# Checking to see if a source directory exists.
SOURCE_DIR=$TOP_DIR/Source
if test ! -d $SOURCE_DIR; then
echo ERROR: Directory $SOURCE_DIR does not exist!
exit
fi
cd $SOURCE_DIR
find . -name aclocal.m4 -exec rm {} \;
find . -name configure -exec rm {} \;
find . -name Makefile.in -exec rm {} \;
find . -depth -type d -name autom4te-2.53.cache -exec rm -rf {} \;
find . -depth -type d -name autom4te.cache -exec rm -rf {} \;
I have run this script many times since and haven't seen the problem,
but every once in a while my Bash scipts start a ton of unicode_start
processes. I use the system provided .bashrc.
Does anyone have a suggestion as to what might cause all of the unicode
start processes?
TIA,
Pete
