Hi Rik,
I can probably give some more datapoints. Here is the console output
of my test machine (there is a 'vmstat 5' running in background):

So the processes don't finish exiting at least 47*5sec. They have
shared mmaped some 666000000 bytes long plain file on a 8GB machine.
The rest of the machine behaves nicely.
