I saw something like this about 5 years ago on solaris machines, but I have not access to solaris machines anymore. I do not mean limiting the absolute CPU time (e.g. "the process should run 20minutes at maximum and shall be killed after that time), but the relative CPU time (e.g. "apache should consume at most 80% of my servers CPU time and shall be throttled if it was to consume more"). Thanx, Xuân. :-) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
