Oops. I should have read up a little more on the rlimits. The RSS
limit is actually not valid for linux anymore:
RLIMIT_RSS
Specifies the limit (in pages) of the process’s resident set
(the number of virtual pages resident in RAM). This limit only
has effect in Linux 2.4.x, x < 30, and there only affects calls
to madvise(2) specifying MADV_WILLNEED.
So, only -v is useful for limiting memory space.
** Changed in: pam (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Fix Released
