Subject: hanging orteds

I'm getting a lot of orted processes that don't die out after jobs finish, both interactive and via torque. The only way I've found to get rid of them is with kill -9. Normally I'm not sure I'd care except that they use 99% cpu.

Also, right not this issue doesn't hurt me because I'm not running apps for folks yet, but I can see where it would be hard to deal with down the road.

Any guidance out there?

Albert
