But otherwise agreed, dropping the whole process is not always a good

What I really want to work towards is the Erlang model where an app is a
web of communicating processes (though Erlang processes are effectively
equivalent to D objects). Then, killing a process on an error is
absolutely correct. It doesn't affect the resilience of the system.
But if these processes are actually threads or fibers with memory
protection, things get a lot more complicated.
One thing I really appreciated about JVM is exactly the memory safety
with ability to handle this pretty much in the same way Erlang does.
I really need to spend
some time investigating how modern Linux systems handle tons of
processes running on them and try to find a happy medium.
Keep us posted.
