Building a new server

You have a database which handles the ambulance system of your city.

You write a function that each time that an emergency starts, it allocates an object representing the event. But when the emergency stops, the 8 bit pointer to the object is not unallocated.

How many calls do you need to crash your system under linux? Infinite.

How many calls do you need to crash your system under linux? (Ram+Swap)/8

So which one is it? Infinite or (Ram+Swap/8)?

You've obviously way out of your league here if you honestly think that you can infinitely leak memory on a Linux system and not have the system eventually crash.

Obviously no infinite resource exist.

But different behaviors in case of scarce resources matter.

Have you ever heard of SElinux?

no one cares about your views/opinions on linux. create your own thread if you want to be proven wrong, and stop crapping all over this one.

This is interesting to hear the back and forth. I am only intimately familiar with Windows, not Linux.

Win 7 is pretty far away from XP. I won't lump all versions of Linux into the same pot either

ncalipari: Do you work with Windows at all in your company, including desktop OS? Or all you all Linux?

Do you finished the arguments? this is why you start with the insults?

GENERAL HARDWARE, guys.

If you wish to discuss the pros and cons of Linux, please use the right forum. At this point it has nothing to do with the OP's question, which has already been answered.

A couple of you will be receiving follow-up infractions for your poor behavior.
