I need help restricting the amount of resources a process can utilize. I've tried settings in /etc/login.conf (yes I ran cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf) but nothing seems to work. I run this as root: perl -e'my @a=1;push @a, 1 for @a' & ...and watch as it uses all the ram and swap on the machine, until malloc returns false to perl (i.e. perl dies because it can't push anymore). Can anyone help me? Thanks a ton! Chris Angell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
