Sadly most distros seem to freeze as the limits are meant to maximize performance and not make it secure, even Ubuntu.
Can someone shed light on what knobs/limits to tweak to deal with this "problem" ?
Add this to your /etc/security/limits.conf
hard nproc 2048
Why 2048 and not 4096 ? The question being... is there some formula to get such a number ?
I understand there are too many factors to consider but am looking for some dynamic solution that allows enough "free memory" to restore sanity.
