Sorry for a general OSGi question here, but you guys are the nicest the most
responsive OSGi community I know :)

I've done a little digging in the OSGi R4 spec and can't seem to find
anything related to this, so honest I have done some RTFMing.

My question: "Is there a way I can specify the amount of resources a bundle
can use?"
Specifically a AWOL bundle that starts gobbling up ram/cpu can kill the
entire OSGi container, I was wondering if there is some support for me to
control bundle resource use to stop this happing?

As far as I know the specification doesn't tell anything about how to
solve problems with malicious or misbehaving bundles (except security
issues). This is one of the bigger problems, not addressed by any
framework I know. Have a look at www.osgicongress.com. In 2005 Ikuo
YAMASAKI had a track called "Monitoring and Managing Computer Resource
Usage on OSGi Frameworks". They used Aspects to get rid of some of the
problems. Perhaps you could contact him.

I can't seem to download the presentations :(
I don't suppose you know of a site where the presentations can be downloads?
(like EclipseCon has?)

I know the answer is probably no, but I gotta ask :)
