Re: [oS-en] Apps crashing.

I have apps randomly crashing, and I suspect they are "hiting a limit".

Now it is happening to other apps, like gkrellm or thunar. See a coredump:

Hitting some limit will only rarely cause a core dump, most often just an error message. It's not easy to tell from the garbled stack trace, but it does look like a new thread could not be started. Maybe the app initiated the core dump. You might be able to make a more informed guess if you take a look at the core dump (with gdb). Maybe a failed malloc() or fork() or some such. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (13.8°C)
