Rss is documented as ignored in recent Linuxen -- see setrlimit(2). I doubt data is ignored, but it's not what you normally want, e.g. it doesn't limit memory malloced via mmap. (I speak from experience of setting the wrong limits.) You normally want to limit the address space (a hard "as" limit is equivalent to GE's h_vmem). It's unfortunate that you can't exclude non-anonymous mmap from that, though, which has come up before. _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
