I have this problem, too. Essentially I have two instances of couchdb running. One is a zombie called 'desktop-couch-se' that is zombie in 'do_exit()', the other is called 'desktop-couch-service' in do_wait() that is fine' couchdb itself has two instances as well, one is in 'do_wait()' the other is in 'pipe_wait()'. Also, when the thread becomes zombie my desktop wallpaper and fonts become garbled and CPU gets laggy (like a memory leak). I am using the rt overclock option for pulseaudio that can be installed with jackaudio and this problem started for me with Ubuntu 11.04. Here is a log from ~/.cache
