automemlimit

Go Reference Go Report Card Test

Automatically set GOMEMLIMIT to match Linux cgroups(7) memory limit.

See more details about GOMEMLIMIT here.

Notice

Version v0.5.0 introduces a fallback to system memory limits as an experimental feature when cgroup limits are unavailable. Activate this by setting AUTOMEMLIMIT_EXPERIMENT=system. You can also use system memory limits via memlimit.FromSystem provider directly.

This feature is under evaluation and might become a default or be removed based on user feedback. If you have any feedback about this feature, please open an issue.

Installation

go get github.com/KimMachineGun/automemlimit@latest

Usage

package main

// By default, it sets `GOMEMLIMIT` to 90% of cgroup's memory limit.
// This is equivalent to `memlimit.SetGoMemLimitWithOpts(memlimit.WithLogger(slog.Default()))`
// To disable logging, use `memlimit.SetGoMemLimitWithOpts` directly.

func init() {
	memlimit.SetGoMemLimitWithOpts(
