If a process exhausts its resource limits (as set with setrlimit()), the kernel will typically kill it with SIGKILL. Also, if the available system-wide memory gets too low, the kernel may start killing of processes, again with SIGKILL. When this occurs, the shell from which the process was spawned will typically write "Killed" to the terminal. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
