What monitoring are you using, so I can avoid it?
 ;-)

ls -d /proc/[1-9]*

I do agree with you, however, that /etc/sysctl.d/htcondor.conf
would be beneficial - it could be the reason it's not done that way now
is that HTCondor predates the /etc/sysctl.d directory. Also, if it sets
something at startup perhaps it should revert it to the original value
at shutdown.
