ulimit is a "BASH BUILTIN COMMAND". No idea if there's something similar on MacOSX. Here's what my man-pages say about ulimit: ulimit [-SHacdflmnpstuv [limit]] Provides control over the resources available to the shell and to processes started by it, on sys- tems that allow such control. The value of limit can be a number in the unit specified for the resource, or the value unlimited. The -H and -S options specify that the hard or soft limit is set for the given resource. A hard limit cannot be increased once it is set; a soft limit may be increased up to the value of the hard limit. If neither -H nor -S is specified, both the soft and hard limits are set. If limit is omitted, the cur- rent value of the soft limit of the resource is printed, unless the -H option is given. When more than one resource is specified, the limit name and unit are printed before the value. Other options are interpreted as follows: -a All current limits are reported -c The maximum size of core files created -d The maximum size of a process's data segment -f The maximum size of files created by the shell -l The maximum size that may be locked into memory -m The maximum resident set size -n The maximum number of open file descriptors (most systems do not allow this value to be set) -p The pipe size in 512-byte blocks (this may not be set) -s The maximum stack size -t The maximum amount of cpu time in seconds -u The maximum number of processes available to a single user -v The maximum amount of virtual memory avail- able to the shell If limit is given, it is the new value of the spec- ified resource (the -a option is display only). If no option is given, then -f is assumed. Values are in 1024-byte increments, except for -t, which is in seconds, -p, which is in units of 512-byte blocks, and -n and -u, which are unscaled values. The return status is 0 unless an invalid option is encountered, a non-numeric argument other than unlimited is supplied as limit, or an error occurs while setting a new limit.
