[comp.unix.microport] 2.4 process size, how ?

john@wa3wbu.UUCP (John Gayman) (11/01/88)

    To those of you running 2.4, I'm curious as to what the procedure
is for configuring the process size ?  Is this set on the fly like
ulimit or can it be globally set at boot time ?  I was sort of dissappointed
to see where it still wouldn't let pathalias run on the full map database.
Has anyone else tried this ?  Does it pay to wait for 2.41 ? :-)

patch /system5 mmpatch <size>

Then reboot.  It does some rudimentary checks to make sure you have enough
swap space, so you may have to reconfigure your disk if you go to a very
large process size.
