SOMETHING is eating fixed resources--often it's process table slots,
sometimes memory. Every command must fork/exec to run if it's external
to the current shell. You can try 'exec _command_'--if it's not memory,
but rather something like process table slots, whatever "command" you
try will run, but at its termination you'll lose that process.
A reboot is certainly in order, along with periodic snapshots of your
running system's resources afterward.
G'luck,
