rlimit_rss_cur

Description

The current limit to the resident set size (the number of pages of memory in use at any given time) that may be used in executing the process. This limit is the larger of the results of the following two formulae:

physical_memory_size - 4 MB

or

physical_memory_size * 9/10

Value

Default: 0 (Automatically configured if set to 0)

Range: 0-(rlimit_vmem_cur * NBPP) (0x7fffffffffffffff)

When to change

Change this parameter when you want to place a cap on the resident set size of a process.
