Hm. I've run many more than that on HPUX 10.20 ... possibly you are
running out of swap space or kernel file table slots? Or just plain old
MAXUPRC (processes per user) limit?
The failures might be less mysterious if you look in the postmaster's
logfile (you are not starting it with -S, I hope, else you won't get
any log output).
