Re: [Condor-users] limiting memory use of condor jobs

[Alexander Lincoln Read <a.l.read@xxxxxxxxxx>]

+JobMemoryLimit = 500000
+JobDiskLimit = 10000
+JobTimeLimit = 3600
+JobCpuLimit = 1800
periodic_remove = DiskUsage > JobDiskLimit ||  ImageSize > 
JobMemoryLimit || RemoteWallClockTime > JobTimeLimit || RemoteUserCpu > 
JobCpuLimit

will remove jobs that either
1) use more than 10 MB of disk
2) use more than 500 MB of memory
3) run for more than an hour
4) use more than 30 minutes of CPU

I made (3) and (4) different just for fun, but for an application with a 
lot of disk reading or
networking it could  make sense.

Cheers, Alex
