That depends on the servlet engine, system limits
(ulimit(1)) and priority levels (nice(1) can be used to
control the resources a process uses. In any case,
the problem is inherant to most languages used for
server side programming, including perl. In fact
Java is arguably better than perl given the reduced
CPU load due to JIT etc.
