    Hi,

    I am using SuSE Linux 7.1 with Kernel 2.4.18. I have created a python
    script to count the maximum number of threads per process (by starting
    new threads continuously until it breaks).

    Currently, the script is breaking at 1024th thread which made me
    believe that a single process can handle up to 1024 threads. The
    question is: Where can I modify this setting (the maximum threads per
    process) in SuSE Linux because I want to pull-up even more?

    (Hint: in HP, they have this kernel parameter: MAX_THREAD_PROC and I
    am looking for the equivalent parameter in SuSE).

    Thanks and hope to hear soon.
    Ronan
