Let’s say I want to compile `pandoc` with modifications of my own and many non- default compiler options. At the same time, on the same machine, I still want to do other stuff. `cgexec` et al. helped a lot to cap the memory and CPU usage of tasks like that, without needing container and virtual machines setups. Nowadays, I am into `systemd-nspawn` because it requires minimal configuration from my end. It is still a hammer deployed to kill an ant. In pages like `systemd.resource-control(5)`, one can read: See the New Control Group Interfaces[1] for an introduction on how to **make use of resource control APIs from programs.** Great! But I do not know how to make programs consuming those APIs. The tools talked about in this thread helped a lot and I am searching for replacement that would fit with my low-proficiency in Devops.
Well the easy way is not to use any programmatic APIs but just use systemd-run instead, for example: systemd-run --user --scope -p MemoryHigh=1M make Will run make with the MemoryHigh property (documented on the man page you mentioned) set to a specified value.
