Limit na pocet procesu na uzivatele nastavit umime i bez toho. Co se tyce
poctu forknuti za sekundu...to muze byt docela nebezpecna hracka, protoze
naivni implementaci by mohlo jit snadno oblbnout, aby zabijela nevinne
procesy. (Podotykam, ze jsem to nezkoumal, takze nevim, jak moc je to ve

univerzalni platnost.)
