More insight into RLimitCPU, RLimitMEM, RLimitNPROC?
- RLimitCPU
- RLimitMEM
- RLimitNPROC
Information on them, (short of the canned overviews) is sparse to say the least, however they do serve a useful purpose when used properly. Is anyone using these values on a large site, and if so, did you find happy medium for the above values? There are a couple of small discussions on this issue here, but nothing that really appears to be from someone that's found the optimal settings.
One host I'm on (pair), from what I can gather limits CGI processes to 30 CPU seconds, and no more than 2.5 to 3 Megs of memory per process, which results in servers that rarely crash- at least in 5 years of having a site there. As for RLimitMEM, some of the discussions here are suggesting a maximum of 20-Megs per single process? Hmm... Isn't that a little high? Who's going to use 20-megs of memory in a single CGI process?
As for RLimitNPROC, hmm... I haven't fully grasped this one yet, but any settings that are working well for someone would be appreciated
Any help is welcome!
