runlim: Limit space to an upper bound (in MB).
$ runlim --space-limit=${number} ${command} ${command_arguments}
try on your machine

This command utilizes the "runlim" tool to restrict the maximum amount of memory (space) used by a specified command.

Here's an explanation of each part of the command:

  • "runlim": It is the name of the tool being executed.
  • "--space-limit=${number}": This parameter sets the limit on the amount of memory (space) allowed for the command. ${number} is a placeholder, expected to be replaced with an actual number representing the memory limit in some specific unit (e.g., bytes, kilobytes, megabytes).
  • "${command}": It represents the command that needs to be executed while being limited by the memory constraint.
  • "${command_arguments}": These are any additional arguments or options required by the command.

Overall, the command restricts the memory usage of the specified command by setting a maximum space limit using "runlim".

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
