Zombie processes (ZombieProcesses)

This attribute displays the total number of zombie processes currently running. Zombie processes take up physical memory and process table slots. This can be a critical problem in systems that do not dynamically increase the number of process table slots.

Once the process table is full, your system cannot start any new processes, and running processes cannot spawn new processes.
