What do you think about accepting, when setting -1/unlimited, a high limit number like 20.000+ as well (and and a comment that on some setups unlimited means just "high number" but not unlimited? Another Idea I had was to start a little test java program that creates e.g. 50.000 (or another high number) of threads. If this fails with "unilimited" pids-limit set, we might have a setup like yours and then skip the test (or accept a high number like I suggested). ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/4518
