I noticed the following when conserver freaked out...  look at the PID's.

This is a 3.1R system, 486DX?/???, 32MB RAM, etc.  Judging from the fact
that conserver wrote a < 30000 PID to its data files, I'm wondering if maybe
corrupt RAM or something would do this.

Any theories?

Something new, every day ...
