If I were in a bad mood, I'd say that if the DBAs don't know enough about
their application to give a realistic estimate of how many processes it
needs, they shouldn't be running it on a production system. :-}

Unless you have a process that goes ape on you and starts infinite spawning
of other processes. This is a safety valve for that issue since if I can
start 15000 processes, I can cripple your machine.
