The most important thing here is that zombies are mostly harmless.
They aren't using any memory or CPU. The only thing they're using is
a PID, and the kernel resources associated with that (a few dozen bytes
to store the process's "name" and so on).
Unless there are thousands of them, you can just ignore them.
