I am not sure, but it is probably pretty hopeless as there is a lot of state that you would have to clean up like the server threads etc. > Are ports being leaked when a trivfs translator exits without cleaning > up the cntl first? No. When a task is destroyed, all ports are destroyed and all references to outside ports are released. This is handled in Mach (similar to file descriptors in Unix).
