[Bug 394350] Re: RLimitCPU has no effect in Apache

[Neil Van Dyke]

* Simply take a fresh Ubuntu 8.04 install (which gets Apache 2.2.8), add
"RLimitCPU 2 2" to the "default" Apache site file, drop the script above
into the "cgi-bin" dir, and run the CGI.  You'll see that the CGI
process is *not* killed.

* Do the same thing on a Debian "stable" system (which gets Apache
2.2.9), and the CGI process *is* killed.

* Rig up a build of upstream Apache 2.2.8 (no Ubuntu patches) to use
esssentially the same config file tree as a fresh Ubuntu 8.04 install
(and running on the same Ubuntu 8.04 installed system), and the CGI
process *is* killed.

At this point, unless I made a mistake while troubleshooting, the
problem appears to be in Ubuntu-specific patches to Apache.
