--- Comment #4 from Tim Starling <tstarl...@wikimedia.org> ---
Cgroups are a fairly nice option for memory limiting. With a little bit of
per-server setup, an unprivileged user can create a cgroup dynamically for each
convert/avconv process. It measures memory in an intelligent way, better than
RSS and much better than vsize. And when the limit is reached, the kernel OOM
killer kills it, so there's no chance of a deadlock.
