There was a problem hiding this comment.
could you add a section for os_process_soft_limit too? (also defaults to 100)
|
While the internal default is indeed 100, it's set to 25 in rel/overlay/etc/default.ini -- so I guess it depends on what you mean by "default". I'm happy to change it to 100, though. Also, added a section on os_process_soft_limit, which could probably use better word-smithing. |
|
heh, so it is, how silly. a hard limit of 25 and a soft limit of 100 (since it's not specified in default.ini), that's a nonsense setup. |
|
@rnewson thanks for the review. If you're ok with this, can you +1 and merge for me? Also, shall I open a PR to just remove the explicit hard limit of 25 in default.ini? |
|
I'll merge this. please open a PR to fix the 25 -> 100 thing in default.ini. |
|
I took care of it. thanks for the doc patch. |
