I'm already playing with them on my desktop machine since a few months,
and I just want to experiment the use of cgroup within SGE.

I'd like to prevent job eating more than X% of ram+swap using :

memory.limit_in_bytes            # set/show limit of memory usage
memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes      # set/show limit of memory+Swap usage

Ok, I should have understand that.

Ok.

I've cloned the current trunk of the subversion repository, but I didn't
see anything. Maybe in a specific branch, I'll look around.

confusion.

I'm too lazy (and not really the right guy) =)

Thank you for your answer.
