The limit is just that -- an attempt by UNIX to impose an upper boundary on
someone or something to keep it from taking over the system. Any limit will do
so long as it is high enough to prevent the NetView from having a problem
spawning other processes to do you bidding. I don't see a problem with 500.
Many people run unlimited.
But I cannot begin to tell you how the web server works so I am not at all clear
on what problem you are trying to solve.

Subject: Re: Web Server and Maximun number of Processes allowed per User...
Thanks James.
Would 500 be too much, i.e. if you will be having a lot of people using the
Web Server? Does too much negatively affect the system in any way? From what
I understand, the Netview Web daemon will start FORKING itself when it runs
out of processes?
Sincerely,
Gord.
