Package: runit-services
Version: 0.2.0
Severity: normal

from ssh/run:

  exec chpst -m8000000 "$SSHD" -D -e

I appreciate the idea of limiting memory usage as a security precaution.
BUT, this limit is inherited to subprocesses!  For example, I was unable
to run "apt-get update" because apt tries to mmap a 12M file.  If you
can figure out how to make the limit not inherited then it might be a
good idea.
