ulimit looks just easy to use but... "-c sets the maximum size of core files created" what is a core file? "-l sets the maximum size that may be locked into memory" What is it? "-m - the maximum resident set size" What is it? "-s the maximum stack size" Is this the maximum stack size of a single program, right? "-t maximum amount of cpu time in seconds" In seconds? Seconds in a minute, or what else? Thanks in advance, Tazio

This is pretty technical - if you needed it you would know what it meant :)
I trust you, but I am just curious :-) Where could I find info on this?
For a very brief explanation, this is from the manpage for top (rss = resident set size) RSS The total amount of physical memory used by the task, in kilobytes, is shown here. For ELF processes used library pages are counted here, for a.out processes not. Anders
