        Care should be taken to ensure that the proper execution of an
        application is not compromised by a lack of system resources. If an
        application is unable to open sufficient files to perform its service,
        it should fail gracefully, or request additional resources.
        Specifically, the quantities manipulated by the <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">setrlimit</span>(2)</span> family of commands should be taken into consideration.
      </p><p>
        This is also true of conversation prompts. The application should not
        accept prompts of arbitrary length with out checking for resource
        allocation failure and dealing with such extreme conditions gracefully
        and in a manner that preserves the PAM API. Such tolerance may be
        especially important when attempting to track a malicious adversary.
