Thanks P, That's very useful (it probably explains the problems we were having). Just to clarify (before I restart our server again as I have quite a few active users on right now), would the following in a bash script do the job:
ulimit -u 100 -t 36000 -v 500000 sage notebook(interface='localhost', directory='./sage_notebook.sagenb',port=8000, accounts=True, timeout=1200, server_pool=['sage%d@localhost'%i for i in range(100)], open_viewer=None) Also, what is a reasonable limit on the memory, could I get away with 250000? I realise that this is asking how long a piece of string is but just checking what is a reasonable limit for student day to day use.
