Abstract: Let $Omega$ be an open set in Euclidean space $R^m,,m=2,3,\mathrm{...}$, and let $v_{Omega}$ denote the torsion function for $Omega$. It is known that $v_{Omega}$ is bounded if and only if the bottom of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian acting in $Le{b}^2(Omega)$, denoted by $lambda(Omega)$, is bounded away from $0$. It is shown that the previously obtained bound $|v_{Omega}{|}_{Le{b}^{infty}(Omega)}lambda(Omega)ge1$ is sharp: for $min2,3,\mathrm{...}$, and any $epsilon>0$ we construct an open, bounded and connected set $Omeg{a}_{epsilon}subset{R}^m$ such that $|v_{Omeg{a}_{epsilon}}{|}_{Le{b}^{infty}(Omeg{a}_{epsilon})}lambda(Omeg{a}_{epsilon})<1+epsilon$. An upper bound for $v_{Omega}$ is obtained for planar, convex sets in Euclidean space $M=R^2$, which is sharp in the limit of elongation. For a complete, non-compact, $m$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ with non-negative Ricci curvature, and without boundary it is shown that $v_{Omega}$ is bounded if and only if the bottom of the spectrum of the Dirichlet-Laplace-Beltrami operator acting in $Le{b}^2(Omega)$ is bounded away from $0$.
