[illumos-Discuss] Resource limits for a service

[Garrett D'Amore]

more than 10MB for a stack?   Really?   That sounds like a busted design.  I seem to recall that this limit is fairly hard.  Why do want such a big stack?

Of course, ulimit and prctl seem to be capable of setting these values for the current shell. However, SMF completely ignores all the settings and uses the default hard limit, no matter where svcadm is invoked.
