+ <p>
+ Responsiveness of processes executing on <c>normal</c> or
+ <c>low</c> priority could suffer due to code purging or
+ literal area removal on systems with a huge amount of
+ processes. This since during these operations all
+ processes on the system were scheduled for execution at
+ once.</p>
+ <p>
+ This problem has been fixed by introducing a limit on
+ outstanding purge and copy literal requests in the
+ system. By default this limit is set to twice the amount
+ of schedulers on the system. This will ensure that
+ schedulers will have enough work scheduled to perform
+ these operations as quickly as possible at the same time
+ as other work will be interleaved to a much higher
+ degree. Performance of these operations will however be
+ somewhat degraded due to the overhead of enforcing this
+ limit compared to when using a very large limit.</p>
+ <p>
+ This limit can be set by passing the <c>+zosrl</c>
+ command line argument to <c>erl</c>, or by calling
+ <c>erlang:system_flag(outstanding_system_requests_limit,
+ NewLimit)</c>.</p>
