you can patch the apps to use setrlimit()

you can write a small sh wrapper that sets ulimits and execs your app

you can also set your defaults in /etc/login.conf or ~/.profile

depends on what you want

i use gimp and ff so login.conf/.profile is really more sensible than
wrapping all the monster apps
