Re: limiting number of procmail processes running

2004-08-13 11:25:40
Toen wij Eric S. Johansson kietelden, kwam er dit uit:

from what I can tell, a practical limit of running processes is
somewhere in the order of five to 10 processes at one time.

Suggestion: use a global lockfile named with the most volatile 
digit of the time.

  :0
  * ^From .*:..:.\/.
  { LOCKFILE = $HOME/pm$MATCH$LOCKEXT }

(untested)
