I suppose it does what it says in the comment at the front, and fails to
work because you need to define $LIMIT beforehand.
-l, --limit=N
percentage of CPU allowed from 1 up. Usually 1 - 100,
but can be higher on multi-core CPUs. (mandatory)
# cpulimit -l 20 firefox
Launch Firefox web browser and limit its CPU usage to
20%
