======

Use ulimit to severely restrict your Bash shell's resources, and see how long
you can last before segfaulting or giving up.

Not really important or useful in any way, but kind of fun to see what breaks
when resources are really tight, especially when it exposes problems in
programs like failing to check for NULL returns from malloc(3).

On the author's machine, at level 5, even ls(1) doesn't work, let alone Vim.

If you're really crazy, you'll try and launch X processes from it, and watch
them twitch as they die.
