    What sort of limits might we be running into with long-lived
processes?  The oldest one I have on our machines is our IRC server:

# date
Tue Mar  5 19:53:52 EST 1996
# ps aux | head -2
USER       PID %CPU %MEM   VSZ  RSS  TT  STAT STARTED       TIME COMMAND
andrew    6069  1.7 26.9 18268 17068  ??  SN    7Feb96  2834:23.83 /usr/ircd/ircd

    I imagine the CPU time will eventually wrap around, but other than
that, the other bits of information should remain valid indefinitely.
That's almost 2 days' worth of CPU time.  :)
