Hi Chris,
Just wanted to let you know that I'm running a server with 6 forks on
64-bit Debian Lenny and I am not seeing this problem. All six forks
stay up and there is no core dumping going on. My first guess would be
that your problem is related to your kernel configuration, such as high
resolution timers, dynamic ticks, etc. Is your Lenny installation up to
date? Are you using a custom kernel?
