I would haved imagined that the snapshot file is ordered by time,
that is memory blocks allocated twards the end of the process would be
at the end of the snapshot, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

The other thing that I am having a problem with is there is some
initialization code which I have that the snapshot is flagging as
having allocated memory. If I put a print in this code the print only
occurs once for each of the 8 multi processes I am running, but I have
zerofault only working off of one process and there is no memory
sharing between processes (they run on different CPU nodes). I have 6
snapshots about 60 seconds appart, the initialization code happens
right away but the 6th snapshot is trying to tell me it appears that
this same initialization code that only gets called one time allocated
memory 24,000 times. The line of code appears referenced in the
snapshot. It appears something is wrong or I am not understanding
something
