Limit CPU/Memory usage for accessories?

[Fire-Dragon-DoL]

Is it possible to configure max memory and cpu usage for app and accessories?

I have background jobs running as accessory, but they take all the cpu when running (very low cost deployment, just 1 small server). I don't care for these jobs to run fast, they could just run at max 20% cpu, even if nobody is using the remaining 80%, it's more important that the web apo stays reactive.

Any suggestions?

Hopefully you already solved your issue ...
If anyone comes across this issue, you can add options to define the memory.

options:
  memory: 250m

Full example for a redis accessory:

redis:
    image: redis:7.0
    host: 10.0.1.10
    port: 6379:6379
    cmd: --maxmemory 200m --maxmemory-policy allkeys-lru
    volumes:
      - /var/redis/data:/data
    options:
      memory: 250m

@Sija it is part of the docs, most people just refuse to read the documentation https://kamal-deploy.org/docs/configuration#using-accessories-for-database-cache-search-services

Oh 😅 I just assumed that it hasn't been covered, didn't read 'em either (I'm not a user though - yet, at least, so I wasn't that much interested)

@acidtib Thanks! Much appreciated 🙏

Looks like the memory example is no longer part of the Kamal 2 docs. Perhaps worth adding?
