My search fu only showed something dating back to FreeBSD 6.2 era, and I know a lot of work has gone into jails since then. Is there a way to limit the amount of total ram available to a jail? Say for instance I have a jails server with 32gb of ram, can I limit jail01 to 512mb? If this isn't currently possible is there any work being done towards this goal? Any suggestions you can provide, including links to the fine manual I should have found but didn't are welcome. Thanks for all the hard work that's gone into jails! In the time I've been using them (since 7.1-Release) The improvements are huge! Thanks again!
