How can I cap the total amount of memory that a risingwave compute node can use to prevent OOM errors?
I'm trying to prevent OOM errors on risingwave compute nodes by limiting the total memory usage. Is there a way to achieve this?

- You can cap the total amount of memory that a risingwave compute node can use by running the Compute Node with the
--total-memory-bytes {Limit}argument. - Set the
Limitto a value slightly less than the total available memory in the container to lower the possibility of OOM errors. - RW reserves 20% of memory internally with respect to
total-memory-bytesto handle workload spikes or inaccurate memory calculations. - It is recommended to upgrade to the latest version of risingwave for ongoing optimizations and fixes for OOM issues.
