I just tested and in fact, the memory restriction does not work. a) set a 5G limit for the container b) started the container c) gave 16 G memory to mysql D) restarted mysql it works fine and it also shows the memory on "show variable like '%buffer%'
Any idea how to work around this? I am afraid any container can take down the box.
