title: How do you prevent perl from making a dump file?
body: <p>Currently I am running several scripts which are in a experimental testing stage. Unfortunately they crash on occasion and generate large "core-perl-11-544-546-27320-1xxxxxxx" perl core dump files.</p>
  
  <p>I want to ensure that if in the future these files crash again, they do not generate perl dump files, or the files size of the dump is limited. </p>
  
  <p>Right now there are some scripts checking for Perl core dump files and removing them if they are greater than a set size, but this is an obvious band-aid on a broken knee. </p>
  
  <p><strong>How might I go about limiting the size of the perl dump file, or preventing one from being made?</strong></p>
