I use Zoom time to time, and it survies an hour long video call without an
issue. I use ungoogled-chromium which I start as.
export ENABLE_WASM=1
/usr/local/bin/ungoogled-chromium \
--new-window \
--enable-unveil \
--disable-beforeunload \
--fingerprinting-canvas-image-data-noise \
--fingerprinting-canvas-measuretext-noise \
--fingerprinting-client-rects-noise \
--force-punycode-hostnames \
--disable-top-sites \
--show-avatar-button=never \
--enable-features=MinimalReferrers \
--enable-features=ReducedSystemInfo \
--enable-features=IncreaseIncognitoStorageQuota \
--disable-features=IndexedDBCompressValuesWithSnappy \
--no-pings \
"$@"
and ulimits are:
~ $ ulimit -a
time(cpu-seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
coredump(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) 134217728
stack(kbytes) 4096
lockedmem(kbytes) 87381
memory(kbytes) 15936900
nofiles(descriptors) 512
processes 256
~ $
also, I had noticed that chromium is hungry for /tmp, but 10G is enough for it.
