----------------------------------------------------------------------
The OSHI library does not have a method to retrieve the maximum processes. The
maximum process request is equivalent to "ulimit -u". The OSHI library also
returns 64 bit longs rather thant 32 bit values as sigar does. This results in
some differences in the tests.
I have extracted the sigar code into an evaluation package and coded an OSHI
replacement to verify that there are no differences in the results.
Evaluation code for the differences between Sigar and OSHI can be found at:

>
> sigar is used to check if the environment has good settings for running C*,
> but requires we bundle a lot of native libraries to perform this check (which
> can also be done elsewhere). This project also appears to be dead as the
> last commit was around 6 years ago.
> With the move to resolve artifacts rather than commit them, removing this
> dependency would remove majority of the artifacts fetched from GitHub.
