Someone will have to find where the memory leak is occurring. You'll want a more controlled reproducer than an infinite fork bomb. > Or is there anyway to avoid this problem? Depends on which problem you mean. If you're exclusively concerned about the memory leak, then finding and fixing the bug will take care of it. If you mean "prevent people from running a fork bomb", stop giving untrusted people shells on your system. That's basically it.
