:Speaking of mmap, was this DoS every fixed/ commited to stable ?
:
:With 
:slag3% limit -h
:cputime         unlimited
:filesize        32768 kbytes

    No.  There is no limit on how much memory can be allocated via mmap().

    There will soon be a resource limit to help determine which process(es) 
    to kill when a machine runs out of swap, and someone was working on a
    per-user (rather then per-process) overall memory use resource-limit, but
    neither yet exists .
