Looking at the documentation I see:
(possibly different) unit can also be specified explicitly. Valid
memory units are <literal>kB</literal> (kilobytes),
<literal>MB</literal> (megabytes), and <literal>GB</literal>
(gigabytes); valid time units are <literal>ms</literal>
(milliseconds), <literal>s</literal> (seconds),
<literal>min</literal> (minutes), <literal>h</literal> (hours),
and <literal>d</literal> (days). Note that the multiplier for
memory units is 1024, not 1000.
The only value to being case-sensitive in this area is to allow
upper/lower case with different meanings, but I don't see us using that,
so why do we bother caring about the case?
