The term DIE is not correct sorry, it will be better say CRASH if that 
works for you, if you stress call an asterisk the moment you reach the 
treshold of that stress test the application will stop responding, 
initially it will start popping errors on the log then it will just stop 
responding having to reboot the asterisk session.
The one crashing is asterisk as an application not the box itself.


Now, is there something you have to help this user? or it is just about 
making a point?
