RE: Listener fork

You didn't state what Linux.

Those aren't processes. They are threads and they wont cause you any problem re process limit.

If you don't like the way they look, you should be able to do this:

$ export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=""
$ lsnrctl start

...you should get NPTL this way and so ps will look cleaner.

PS. I've not found any human with a pulse and a room tempurature I.Q. that can explain to me why the Linux guys thought it would be so brilliant to expose Pthreads in ps(1) output. If anything it should be detail that one would have to go way out of their way for because it is minutia.
