Do you have your process limit set really low for your uid?

As for the code changes, you could attach a patch to you message
and we can see if we can apply it. I'll have to scrutinize the patch
closely because even though one might think the age of a process can't
be negative, due to kernel issues a negative age actually could be
calculated, so I'd need to do some inspection.

Have you signed our code contribution agreement?

Thank you.
