Well, "limit" tells me:

limit
cputime      unlimited
filesize     unlimited
datasize     524288 kbytes
stacksize    65536 kbytes
coredumpsize 2048 kbytes
memoryuse    unlimited
vmemoryuse   unlimited
descriptors  58982
memorylocked unlimited
maxproc      7372
sbsize       unlimited

(in the future i have to fix cputime, filesize,... to accaptable value...)
