Hi Daryl,

Typically when I see a core dump when running siege, it is a resource
issue. Out of memory, and/or I've reached the ulimit on my machine and need
to set it higher. The limit is 1024 (displayed via ulimit -n), and can be
changed via ulimit -n <value>. This change isn't persistent - and the
setting can be changed permanently by editing
/etc/sysconfig/security/limits.conf.

I typically set it to something unrealistically high, and the machine will
always run out of memory before hitting the ulimit.
