Re: Putting Limits on Memory and CPU Usage in python ?

I did a little research on this and found cpulimit, you can also use nice and renice, and (on fedora core 21 at least) you can do 'cat /proc/###/status' where ### is the process ID which will give you memory stats on a process. Not ideal but you can wrap all of these in some python to make it easier to manage.
