[comp.sys.sgi] rogue 'jot' process?

SOFPJF@VM.UOGUELPH.CA (Peter Jaspers-Fayer) (08/17/90)

I get a strange message in SYSLOG every time a pandora login happens:
grcond[12467]: CIO: WARNING: Process [jot] pid 484 killed due to insuf-
                             ficient memory/swap.

Earlier today, I did a jot of a binary file by mistake, and it took over
my CPU, (locked out the whole screen), and eventually timed out with the
above message. Could it be the 'gost' of this strange jot-gone-awry is
still some place in the system and is getting signalled when I do a
pandora login?   `ps` does not show anything.
