The content /proc/<pid>/cmdline is created by the proces <pid> itself, in a separate thread. Since you use memory intensive application (xterm -sl 20000) we can speculate it might be caused by memory corruption in xterm.
Observe whether the processes with corrupted /proc/<pid>/cmdline behave properly and try avoiding '-sl 20000' as a work-arround. Unless there is another application with the same problem, this is not a topic for this list, I think. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/-proc-*-cmdline-corrupted-tp32639066p32645081.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
