Hi Marc, Thanks for your reply! The "ulimit -a" outputs following:
$ ulimit -a time(cpu-seconds) unlimited file(blocks) unlimited coredump(blocks) unlimited data(kbytes) 33554432 stack(kbytes) 8192 lockedmem(kbytes) 1332328 memory(kbytes) 3978716 nofiles(descriptors) 128 processes 1310 It seems should be enough to launch cmake or egdb. Thanks!
