For our main production application to run, we must be logged in as a particular user--we have had some memory allocation problems in the past (mostly due to poorly written code), but I just looked at the actual memory allocated to the user (ulimit -a), and noticed it's quite low--so I was going to raise it. My question is: is their any good way to determine the absolute maximum virtual memory this user can have. On the system there is about 12GB of Swap space...is their any reason why I shouldn't set this 12GB as a maximum for the user? Nobody else uses this system when it is running the production application. Any input?
