It will not come back except via reboot. You can also just write a program that recursively calls itself allocating 100k of mem or something. This way you hog mem as opposed to proccesses. All depends what your objective is. Linux comes with some open holes you should fix. Either as an exercise to the readers, or ask if you want to know some of 'em... For example, the SLS dist I originally used had /usr/lib world writable... -Panzer
