With ulimit. Since it has no manpage, see ; ulimit --help

Hi misc@, How can one disable core dumps? Normally these aren't an issue, but with testing the Monero port I am sometimes getting core dumps. These will get to 30-60GB+ and fill up the partition. I'd rather not have these. Another thought, maybe controversial, might be for coredumps to get deleted if they fill up the disk. Or stop writing if the filesystem is more than 90% full. Thank you! -Henrich uid 627 on /home: file system full coredump of monerod(54572) failed, filesystem full
