OGS/GE 2011.11p1 Hi,
Is there an alternative to h_vmem that checks resident memory rather than virtual? I'd like a consumable that kills a job when it oversteps its requested memory quota, so h_vmem is great. But I'm having trouble with Matlab (and maybe other apps, haven't checked fully yet) which at startup, allocates a somewhat-variable large amount of VIRT memory (~4G) but little RES memory (~300M) (according to 'top'). Matlab's java environment is allocating most of the virtual memory, but they can't tell me a way to limit this. In any case this large VIRT value makes it impossible to set a smaller default h_vmem value because Matlab won't launch. Thanks for any thoughts. -M
