Thank you for your replies.

Following most of your descriptions, it seems the quota's are on a per
process basis. If that is true, I think this is not my problem. The
problem can best be described as the system hits a brick wall.
Programs that are running continue to run but have odd behavior and new
programs will not start (they fail out of the starting gate). I have
started a performance log to monitor every 2 minutes various counters
such as available memory and such. But I find it hard to believe we
have run out of physical and virtual memory since between them we have
10 gigs. Our best post mortem analysis indicates that this happens if
one or both of the following is true, we have a high number of perl
processes running and/or our main programs are using a larger amount of
memory then usual. Our programs do have a memory creep but each one is
using only about 25 megs and we have 5 of them running, so that does
not seem to be too taxing for this machine.

So assuming that quotas are not my problem, could the logged in user be
limited on the overall number of handles that are open, or overall
memory consumed or overall resources in general consumed?
