Depending on the kernel version and I think glibc version, "ps" output can 
show one asterisk process or 5 or 6.  It doesn't mean that there are six 
copies running, but rather has something to do with the threading and how ps 
processes threads vs. processes for printing.  Unless there is a real 
problem, don't worry about how many asterisk processes are showing up in ps 
and top.

I would try enabling the resetinterval parameter in zapata.conf as I'd 
mentioned earlier.  That was placed in there (or rather it was always in 
there but then later made into a configurable parameter) to work around some 
buggy switches which seemed to require any idle B channels to be periodically 
restarted.
