To limit VM heap size I’ve found this: [erlang-questions] Max heap size
It says to pass the options +MMsco true +Musac false +MMscs 60
(You find these options here Erlang -- erts_alloc) where 60 is the limit in MB.
I’ve tried it and when the VM reached the limit it crashes…
eheap_alloc: Cannot allocate 600904 bytes of memory (of type "heap")
@ollran what does it happen to the JVM when it reaches the memory limit?
