Have you tired the ulimit command? This command works under bash, etc and
will allow you to set the max size of all of the following:
core file size (blocks) unlimited
data seg size (kbytes) unlimited
file size (blocks) unlimited
max locked memory (kbytes) unlimited
max memory size (kbytes) unlimited
open files 1024
pipe size (512 bytes) 8
stack size (kbytes) 8192
cpu time (seconds) unlimited
max user processes 2048
virtual memory (kbytes) unlimited
I think the program will crash if it tries to go over the limit, (you can
check and see :)). If you don't wanna use this command in bash to do it
your program can also make a system call to, I want to say a procedure in
ulimit.h. I can find out when I can get to my books.
