That seems like a question for superuser.com, however, I believe that it wouldn't be common to control this in the OS-level but in the application/process level, e.g., in Java, we can configure our program/application server/etc to allocate a certain amount of RAM based on the arguments that we set on that particular JVM instance (java -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m
), did you check if your application offers this kind of configuration? Did you check with the vendor? Perhaps some application-specific docs?
UPDATE:
Hmm, interesting, Czech this out: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/192876/set-windows-process-or-user-memory-limit
