Hi,<br />
<br />
It is not that you'd not needed to increase nproc. Bu &nbsp;some old versions of 2.6 libs were broken someiimes they did not apply limts and in some other cases there were not a granular process distribution and now they are handled differently with the newer kernel. Another reason is &nbsp;more systems are 64-bit the probablity of them using larger memory and disk &nbsp;are imminent hence the minimum values are updateed according to average avaliable hardware. <br />

I noticed I needed to increase my nproc on RHEL 6.2 in applications where I did not have to increase nproc on RHEL 5.x.<br />

Does the creation of RHEL 6 threads count against the max number of nproc

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux.
