Hi Alex, thanks a lot for your ongoing tests.

On the server that has runit as pid 1, and those zombies currently in
the process table, can you please do the following as root?:

Count the currently unreaped zombies
 # chmod 0 /etc/runit/stopit
 # kill -CONT 1
Count the unreaped zombies again

Does the number change?

Thanks, Gerrit.
