Yeah...they exec the application (which is to say, the application
REPLACES the login shell, keeping the same process ID number) so as
to free up the shell's memory space.

Your method results in a persistant shell.

In my opinion though, the solution is to either buy more memory,
or make more swap space (to provide for more virtual memory
address range).
