Comment(by tomeu):

 Replying to [comment:7 dsd]:
 > Saw this on 2 more systems today, in Kim's office running 8.2-757. They
 had been running for a long time but had some free memory. They could not
 launch activities or rotate the screen due to the same exception being
 raised by os.fork().

 Not exactly about this ticket, but this could be a serious mem leak and if
 we could determine what causes it, then it may be pretty easy to fix. Can
 we get more details?
