Is it possible to limit the pid of child processes in Linux bash? -
for illustration bash pid 3000, , want limit kid pid in range [3001,3010].
i want because writing infinite while loop in bash, , pid explode.
while true;do something; sleep 5; done; every loop spawned @ to the lowest degree 3 kid processes(true, something, sleep). pid whill grow @ speed of @ to the lowest degree 3 per sec. after time, ps aux show awkwardly big pid, think not thing.
the pids don't "explode". recycled kernel. can see maximum pid number in /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max. of course, can modify value, if wish.
