My understanding (I haven't really looked at that code) is that "K" means the child has been killed but it hasn't exited yet. If a child is in that state for more than, say, 5 seconds, there's likely an issue where it doesn't actually die off, imo. You should generally see states of I or B. -- Randomly Generated Tagline: "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." - Gandhi
