Ever wanted to write this?
-- | Forks a thread, but kills it if it has more than 'limit'
-- bytes resident on the heap.
forkIOWithSpaceLimit :: IO () -> {- limit -} Int -> IO ThreadId
I have a proposal (and some unpublished experimental patches) which do
just that. Check it out at:
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary/ResourceLimits
Comments, bikeshedding and critique appreciated.
Cheers,
Edward
