Synopsis: The RLimit* directives are bizarre

Comment-Added:
No, they are the way they are on purpose.  The idea is that
user written code shouldn't have certain limits, but it
doesn't necessarily make sense to impose those same limits
on Apache processes.

This should be better documented and there should be a way to
put limits on the Apache child processes.  For memory limits,
you can just do the ulimits before starting the parent, but
that doesn't work for CPU limits since then the parent could
eventually be killed.

I think a module that can set the ulimits when each child
starts is probably the easiest solution; I probably need one
for something else anyway, so I'll look at making one and
perhaps including it with Apache.
