[asterisk-users] asterisk's zombie processes

[vip killa]

I'm monitoring Asterisk with Nagios. Nagios constantly alerts because of too
many zombie processes. I eventually had to disable the notification for the
alert but why does Asterisk create so many zombie processes, I've see more
than 30 at times and it generally stays in the 20s... just seems unusual and
wondering if it's harmful, thanks in advance.
