Not necessarily a fork bomb but had similar effects: - Boss asks me to write a script to check X resource - Script is done and takes around 30 seconds to run - Boss neglected to tell me script was schedule to run once a minute - As load increased, script started to take more than 60 seconds to run - Since we are running script every 60 seconds, we start having multiple copies of the script - Server goes down #funtimes
