One might try setting process limits before starting j. Perhaps run j
at low priority.
When I expect I might consume all my RAM I try to watch the system
monitor so I can stop j before the system enters page fault hell.
Sometimes this works.
Once the page faulting starts there's no hope for finding jbreak. I can
interrupt explicit code without losing the j console session, not so
with a tacit sentence.

Is there a way to make it so Ctrl+C always interrupts the interpreter
and/or stops the currently running J sentence?
Sometimes I will be working on a sentence interactively, do something dumb,
which results in having to kill the process, losing any unsaved state.
It'd be nice if there was a way to back out of a runaway process more
gracefully.
