| Guidelines |
| This thesis analyses approaches employed in selected operating systems to the problem of resource limits and accounting. The emphasis is put on limiting CPU time and disk I/O throughput based on entities such as a process, a group of processes, a container or a user.
Based on the analysis, the thesis proposes a resource limiting and accounting facility and administration tools for FreeBSD. A prototype implementation of the facility and tools is also included, providing features that enable the administrators and privileged users to define disk I/O throughput limits and relative CPU time limits for a particular process, user or FreeBSD jail. |
