in thread Memory leaks

I only need the two bits of information - the PID and the parent PID ( ie, PPID ). If you look at the portion where the comment mentions something about "cement shoes and overcoats", you will notice I am sorting by the PPID in a vain attempt to kill the main process.

    Fine, that's a good q&d thing to do and your code probably does it. The code you posted just got mangled so there is no key between $proc{} and {PPID}.
         $total = kill 9, sort { $procs{$a}{PPID} <=> $procs{$b}{PPID} } k
+eys %procs;
                                    /\                   /\

    that's all I was mentioning.
