[Asterisk-Users] question about CPU usage

[Scott Stingel]

I think Steve is referring to the following line:

export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1

If you put this in your command line before starting asterisk, you will get
around the RH9 problem of leaving zombies when AGI processes quit.  Other
than that, I don't think it influences CPU load.

Note that the line is not necessary for Fedora Core 1
