in thread reloading a never-ending process

thanks for the warning. Does the above solution where i write data to disk on a SIGHUP - then exec, should take care of the memory leak issue?

Thanks

    I believe it does, because you run a new instance with a new pid, therefore allowing the OS to clean out the memory from the old pid, so I think so. Other monks may know better.
