Stupid me... I was up 24 hours and out of my mind. I'm using kernel =
2.4.20,
not 2.4.0. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks for the pointer. Guess I'll also give djb's softlimit a try.

But I am still worried about lost memory. I need to reboot the system =
again
in an hour or so. 3G out of 4G is being used by no apparent process now =
even
when I stop the ZEO server.
