Apropos this discussion:
The original poster does have a point: resource allocation and process
isolation are core o/s functions.
I've never really given a lot of thought to the details - for most of
the servers I've set up over the years, everything has pretty much just
worked (under Solaris for a while, then Redhat, these days Debian). To
the extent that I've tuned resource consumption, I've mostly done it
across Xen virtual machines.
But now that someone's raised the question: Can somebody suggest a good
reference for an overview of the resource management philosophy,
architecture, tools, and defaults for both the Linux kernel and for Debian?
