I'm not particularly worried about it as it seems to be transitory. A reboot will most likely cure it. The "kern.maxprocperuid" sysctl setting of 100 seems to be the most likely culprit. Does that seem fairly low to anyone else?

This is indeed the culprit. Well, that or possibly kern.maxproc (which defaults to 2048, on my system - 10.4.4 Server - anyway). Unfortunately you can only up that to 2068, and kern.maxprocperuid cannot be greater than kern.maxproc.


So in the short term you can try maxing out both settings. Server defaults to 1000 for kern.maxprocperuid, which is much more sane. Hopefully in future the default limits, at the very least, will be increased. File a bug report.
