 I'm curious. How do you guys come up with your constants ?
 DJB's svscan checks for new services (and reaps zombies) every 5 seconds.
 You're thinking about a check every 14 seconds.
 Is 14 the result of some clever calculation, or is it just something like
a "reasonable guesstimate" ?

 What I'd really like to see is an option to configure the timeout.
 For instance, runit -t 10 would reap zombies every 10 seconds.
 The default could, of course, be whatever reasonable guesstimate, or
clever result, you want.

 Congratulations to you all for analyzing and finally solving the
problem, anyway. And my apologies again for the 'hardware interrupt'
that occurred during the process.
