Hello!
As I can see on the flower page (after disabling CSS with Webdeveloper 
Plugin), there is the possibility to do several "rlimits".
I propose to set sane defaults for rlimits. I assume this could/should 
be done within the "vserver build" command?
Well, I mean if I run a mem-eater or process-rabbit within a guest, the 
host's power drain up to total trashing (kudos the remote hands in the 
datacentre)
You can try yourself for example with this nifty piece of bash code 
taken from Michal Zalewski's e-mail signature:
foo:/# :(){ :|:&};:
You could argue that this also a quesstion of the host's operating 
system/distribution, where I would totally agree. But we don't have the 
possibilty to change that in all distri around ....
So, any recommendations for sane limits? I don't even know what's the 
current maximum pid in the kernel ...
rgds,
Andreas
