Pardon my ignorance: I'm trying to corral bloated processes, WRT swap usage. I wish to control them via 'limits'. However, I'm (in my ignorance) unable to map the attributes that 'ps' can report on, ie.: # ps -opid,rss,rsz,vsz,command (there are others, of course) To the attributes that can be controlled via the setrlimit(2) utilities (ulimits, limits, et al.) RLIMIT_DATA datasize RLIMIT_RSS memoryuse RLIMIT_STACK stacksize (there are others, of course) Does anyone have any quickie pointers? I _think_ some comination of rss or rsz -> memoryuse will be what I want, but I don't know how to infer stack usage via 'ps'. And what is 'vsz' (virtual size) anway, WRT setrlimit? -- Brian 'you Bastard' Reichert <reichert@numachi.com> 37 Crystal Ave. #303 Daytime number: (603) 434-6842 Derry NH 03038-1713 USA Intel architecture: the left-hand path To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
