Dear All,

I have had no joy in my efforts to try and limit the consumption of memory by any particular process.

I tried ulimit but could not fathom how to use it to limit the memory usage.

There is a downloadable program"cpulimit" - I know, which can possibly help in achieving my aim. But I am really not keen at all without exhausting all possible and available options before turning to third party software.

Many thanks in advance for your replies.

With regards,
Fruitjam
