Right - that is doing all the work. Of course after the 'soffice' wrapper shell-script completes, it execve's 'oosplash' on linux - so that binary should inherit that pid. I think we can speculate as to the benefits of launching pagein/oosplash in the headless case; it would be reasonably reasonable to tweak: # run soffice.bin directly when you want to get the backtrace if [ -n "$GDBTRACECHECK" ] ; then exec $GDBTRACECHECK "$sd_prog/soffice.bin" "$@" fi To check for the headless parameter and avoid oosplash entirely in this case I think; that would in turn ensure that the pid of the process you forked would be the real pid of the beast doing all the hard work [ and of course locking up from time to time - though we'd like to find/fix those lockups too naturally ;-]. Would that be a better solution ?
