In response to Doug Barton <dougb@FreeBSD.org>: > > Any thoughts or advice along these lines will be greatly appreciated. :) I don't know of any hardcoded limits, but I can give you some specifics of what I know works. We have production servers running 40 jails. They perform a variety of functions from database jails that are constantly busy to batch job jails that sit idle 99% of the time. These systems have 16G of RAM, 16 CPUs, and about 200 nullfs mounts. They run like production-quality stuff should, long uptimes (only rebooted for OS upgrades) and very little maintenance or babysitting required.
