25 "Apache2::Resource" uses the "BSD::Resource" module, which uses the C
26 function "setrlimit" to set limits on system resources such as memory
27 and cpu usage.
28
29 Any "RLIMIT" operation available to limit on your system can be set by
30 defining that operation as an environment variable with a "PERL_"
31 prefix. See your system "setrlimit" manpage for available resources
32 which can be limited.
33
34 The following limit values are in megabytes: "DATA", "RSS", "STACK",
35 "FSIZE", "CORE", "MEMLOCK"; all others are treated as their natural
36 unit.
37
38 If the value of the variable is of the form "S:H", "S" is treated as
39 the soft limit, and "H" is the hard limit. If it is just a single
40 number, it is used for both soft and hard limits.
41
43 To set reasonable defaults for all RLIMITs, add this to your
44 httpd.conf:
45
46 PerlSetEnv PERL_RLIMIT_DEFAULTS On
47 PerlModule Apache2::Resource
48
50 BSD::Resource(3), setrlimit(2)
