[Bug 260004] Re: ld-linux.so.2 process excessively consumes CPU

[Ulrich Lukas]

Regarding Dimitrios first comment:

Indeed, this might be a problem because the maintainer likely focuses on bugs in newer Ubuntu releases.
This is understandable.

/But/: 6.06 _is_ supposed to be a "LTS" distribution!  There is still
official support.

/Plus/, AFAIK, the problem still persists with newer distributions, and
Adobe Reader is a /critical/ third-party-application for many users. For
many documents and tasks there is no alternative.

The problem with the whole system freezing/crashing because of a single
non-root user application consuming too much memory is still present
even in the newest Jaunty pre-releases.

This is a _really_ nasty thing, and it is also covered in Bug #159356. (Likely a kernel bug, see 
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=390313#p390313)
