--------------------------------------
Skill Level: Regular Contributors Level (Easy to Medium)
> Need a way to limit memory used by a subprocess
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-371
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-371
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JavaScript View Server
> Affects Versions: 0.9
> Reporter: Damien Katz
> Assignee: Damien Katz
> Priority: Minor
>
> We need a way to limit the total memory used by sub processes, such as a view
> process, so they can not use up all the available memory due to coding error
> or malicious attack. We can probably do this by setting ulimit in the
> couchspawnkillable script.
