Essentially, I am looking for a sort of functionality similar to what Sendmail and Apache have. Once the load of the system reaches a certain defined limit the daemon drops tasks until such a time that it can resume normal operation.
While not necessarily common on my servers I have witnessed some fairly high load averages which may have led to the machine dropping outright. Any help on this matter would be appreciated.
