Saying "one process per user" is not at all as terrible as saying "50 processes per user". I think that was more a matter of what you deem right and useful to have running, not what it's theorically possible to fit in the scheduler. Fun fact: counting zombie processes, I actually have 50 processes running under my user, according to ps. -- Teodoro Santoni Something is wrong.
