Synopsis: Default limits for number of processes per user ridiculously low State-Changed-From-To: feedback-open State-Changed-By: scrappy State-Changed-When: Tue Oct 22 14:17:57 PDT 1996 State-Changed-Why: Still existent. The problem is that simply bumping the number is inappropriate. The 40 might already be too high as a default for an 386/sx16 with 4 MB RAM (bottom end of what we are supporting), while it is plain stupid for an i686/200 with 128 MB RAM. So, the actual default should be calculated based on the size of the machine, with an option to allow the admin overriding it from the config file. I once thought loud about this, but never got round to really implement it. Might look like a nice pet project for somebody over the weekend. -- cheers, J"org
