Hi,

Yes, I don't actually know if I have very large blogs, but the possibility
exists, and is quite large.

I am running FreeBSD so I don't have the ulimit program, the only program I
have is called limits and these are what I get when running it:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /home # limits
Resource limits (current):
  cputime          infinity secs
  filesize         infinity kb
  datasize           524288 kb
  stacksize           65536 kb
  coredumpsize     infinity kb
  memoryuse        infinity kb
  memorylocked     infinity kb
  maxprocesses         5446
  openfiles           10893
  sbsize           infinity bytes
  vmemoryuse       infinity kb
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /home #

I have upped my RAM in the unit with 512Mb to 768Mb, so I think I should
have enough RAM now.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Ian
