READ THE DAMN ARCHIVES, or at least semi recent discussions.

I'm betting you are a fairly new unix user as you don't seem to recognize a
multi threaded app. Asterisk is behaving similarly to apache, starting many
threads to service quite a few items at once.

Your kernel upgrade is probably not the only thing that has happened here.
It was commented recently in this mailing list that a recent change in RH ha
changed the default behaviour of ps. This change is why you are now seeing
something else.
