Limiting the use of resident memory by the application
You can configure a limit on the application's use of resident memory. By default, the limit is set automatically.
Setting a limit in the Web Console
In the Web Console, you can enable or disable the resident memory usage limit in the policy properties (Application settings → General settings → Application settings, Advanced application settings section).
In the Advanced application settings section, the Configure memory usage link opens a window where you can configure the resident memory usage limit (see the table below).
Settings
Setting | Description |
|---|---|
Resident memory usage by the application | In the drop-down list, you can select how to limit resident memory usage:
|
Memory usage limit (%) | Input field for the memory usage limit (as a percentage). Default value: 50. |
Memory usage limit (MB) | Input field for the memory usage limit (in megabytes). Default value: 2000. |
Setting a limit in the Administration Console
In the Administration Console, you can configure the resident memory usage limit in the policy properties (General settings → Application settings).
In the Advanced application settings section, clicking the Configure button opens the Additional settings window, in which you can configure the resident memory usage limit (see the table below).

Application memory usage | In the drop-down list, you can select how to limit resident memory usage:
|
Memory usage limit (%) | Input field for the memory usage limit (as a percentage). Default value: 50. |

Setting a limit on the command line
In the command line, you can configure the resident memory usage limit using the MaxMemory setting in the kesl.ini configuration file.
The MaxMemory setting can take the following values:
off– the resident set size is not limited.<value>%– a value between 1 and 100, expressing a percentage of memory.<value>MB– a value in megabytes.lowest/<value>%/<value>MB– the smaller value between the value as a percentage and the value in megabytes.highest/<value>%/<value>MB– the larger value between the value as a percentage and the value in megabytes.auto– up to 50% of available memory, but not less than 2 GB and not more than 16 GB.
Default value: auto.
