I noticed this file is over 3Megs... is this a problem? can I delete it?
When I reboot will it disappear?

>From what I've seen /proc is basically the kernels man readable filesystem
in RAM... If this is 3Mgs... Isn't that taking up 3Megs of RAM?

It worries me as it has core in it... every time I've seen core, it has
been from ---Segmentation Fault---core dumped.

I know this isn't a kernel development question.. but one of you gurus is
probably the only place I could get this info from :)

Thanks,
Curtis
