Marcos, looking at these numbers (and variations of these on various netpages)
I always wonder whether they are such a good idea: Wouldn't rtprio 99 allow
for banzai processes to almost lock down the machine? Wouldn't memlock
4000000 (4GB) be like begging for a swapfest on standard 1GB/2GB machines?
Isn't the whole point about limits.conf to effectively prevent processes from
sucking in all resources? So that when realtime processes go havoc you'll be
left with cycles and memory to survive the situation?
