OrbStack and user process limits

[kristof-taveirne]

Hi,

Is OrbStack setting limits on the amount of processes?

I'm trying to start an Ubuntu 22.04 based container on OrbStack and I get the following error:

The soft limit on the maximum number of processes is configured lower than 65000. Please increase this limit to at least 65000.

This container is started on K8s using a Helm Chart.

I initially thought that this was coming from the ulimit -u on MacOS. I tried to increase that, but it appears that because I have System Integrity Policy enabled on my machine I can't go beyond 4000.

Any ideas how I could deal this?

Thanks!
Kristof
