Thanx, but that leads to the same result. In the first place I used: PerlModule Apache::Resource PerlSetEnv PERL_RLIMIT_AS 32:64 PerlChildInitHandler Apache::Resource
in httpd.conf, but Apache::Resource uses BSD::Resource in the end and thus its the same as use BSD::Resource; setrlimit RLIMIT_AS, 32000000, 64000000; at top of the test script. I use "setrlimit" directly so I could test if BSD::Resource works at all - and it DOES if run from the shell - but it does NOT if run from Apache/mod_perl..... What could cause the different behaviour?? Best regards, Christoph Bergmann Perrin Harkins wrote: > > > has anybody any ideas? > > Apache::Resource.
