             Summary: Add isolator for process number cgroup controllor
                 Key: MESOS-3400
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3400
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: slave
    Affects Versions: 0.23.0
            Reporter: Jeffrey Schroeder
            Priority: Minor


The process number controller was recently merged into Linux. It is used for 
limiting the maximum number of processes allowed in a given namespace.

This feature benefits mesos by allowing cluster administrators to prevent fork 
bomb denial of service style tasks and spawn ever more processes. See this page 
for more information:
