Its always better to have unlimited for root, as its the boss.
Moreover, when you do operations as root, you need those values at higher range.
Example: To transfer huge file(s), you need files (blocks) at very high value or better unlimited, because it will stop the transfer after it reach the defined value.
So, keep the boss smiling and you will be happy too.

padre::config
Padre::Config(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Padre::Config(3pm)
NAME
Padre::Config - Configuration subsystem for Padre
SYNOPSIS
use Padre::Config;
[...]
if ( Padre::Config->main_statusbar ) { [...] }
DESCRIPTION
This module not only stores the complete Padre configuration, it also holds the functions for loading and saving the configuration.
The Padre configuration lives in two places:
a user-editable text file usually called config.yml
an SQLite database which shouldn't be edited by the user
Generic usage
Every setting is accessed by a mutator named after it, i.e. it can be used both as a getter and a setter depending on the number of
arguments passed to it.
Different types of settings
Padre needs to store different settings. Those preferences are stored in different places depending on their impact. But "Padre::Config"
allows one to access them with a unified API (a mutator). Only their declaration differs in the module.
Here are the various types of settings that "Padre::Config" can manage:
o User settings
Those settings are general settings that relates to user preferences. They range from general user interface look & feel (whether to
show the line numbers, etc.) to editor preferences (tab width, etc.) and other personal settings.
Those settings are stored in a YAML file, and accessed with "Padre::Config::Human".
o Host settings
Those preferences are related to the host on which Padre is run. The principal example of those settings are window appearance.
Those settings are stored in a DB file, and accessed with "Padre::Config::Host".
o Project settings
Those preferences are related to the project of the file you are currently editing. Examples of those settings are whether to use tabs
or spaces, etc.
Those settings are accessed with "Padre::Config::Project".
ADDING CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
Add a "setting()" - call to the correct section of this file.
The setting() call initially creates the option and defines some metadata like the type of the option, it's living place and the default
value which should be used until the user configures a own value.
