# System Resource Limits

CloudLinux is a specialized Linux distribution that allows us to limit the resource usage of individual cPanel accounts. This ensures that no single account can exhaust the server’s resources, providing a stable hosting environment for all users. Below are the limits we set for our web and cloud hosting:

| Resource            | Limit                                  |
| ------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| **RAM**             | Up to 16GB DDR5 (depending on package) |
| **vCPU**            | Up to 6 vCPU (depending on package)    |
| **Entry Processes** | Up to 600 (depending on package)       |
| **NPROC**           | Up to 1200 (depending on package)      |
| **IO**              | No cap                                 |
| **IOPS**            | No cap                                 |
| **Inodes**          | Unlimited                              |

#### Explanation of Terms

* **RAM (Random Access Memory)**: A type of computer memory that temporarily stores data and machine code currently being used. Higher RAM allows for better performance, especially with multiple concurrent users.
* **vCPU (Virtual CPU)**: A virtualized CPU core that allocates processing power to virtual machines. The number of vCPUs can significantly affect the performance of your applications.
* **Entry Processes**: The number of simultaneous processes that can be initiated by a user. This includes web requests, SSH sessions, and cron jobs. Limiting entry processes helps prevent server overload.
* **NPROC (Number of Processes)**: Refers to the total number of processes a user can run simultaneously. Setting a cap ensures that no single account monopolizes server resources.
* **IO (Input/Output)**: This measures the data transfer speed to and from the storage system. Higher IO limits allow for faster data processing and retrieval.
* **IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second)**: Indicates the number of read/write operations a storage device can perform in a second. Having no cap means that users can perform as many operations as needed without restriction.
* **Inodes**: Structures that store information about files and directories in a file system. Having unlimited inodes allows users to create as many files and directories as they require without concern for limitations.
