lib.rs
:
rlimit - Resource limits.
Set resource limit
use rlimit::{setrlimit, Resource};
const DEFAULT_SOFT_LIMIT: u64 = 4 * 1024 * 1024;
const DEFAULT_HARD_LIMIT: u64 = 8 * 1024 * 1024;
assert!(Resource::FSIZE.set(DEFAULT_SOFT_LIMIT, DEFAULT_HARD_LIMIT).is_ok());
let soft = 16384;
let hard = soft * 2;
assert!(setrlimit(Resource::NOFILE, soft, hard).is_ok());
Get resource limit
use rlimit::{getrlimit, Resource};
assert!(Resource::NOFILE.get().is_ok());
assert_eq!(getrlimit(Resource::CPU).unwrap(), (rlimit::INFINITY, rlimit::INFINITY));
Windows
Windows does not have Unix-like resource limits. It only supports changing the number of simultaneously open files currently permitted at the stdio level.
See the official documentation of
_getmaxstdio
and
_setmaxstdio
.
println!("{}", rlimit::getmaxstdio()); // 512
rlimit::setmaxstdio(2048).unwrap();
println!("{}", rlimit::getmaxstdio()); // 2048
Increase NOFILE limit
See the example nofile.
You can also use the tool function rlimit::increase_nofile_limit
rlimit::increase_nofile_limit(10240).unwrap();
rlimit::increase_nofile_limit(u64::MAX).unwrap();
Troubleshoot
Failed to increase NOFILE to hard limit on macOS
On macOS, getrlimit by default reports that the hard limit is
unlimited, but there is usually a stricter hard limit discoverable
via sysctl (kern.maxfilesperproc
). Failing to discover this secret stricter hard limit will
cause the call to setrlimit to fail.
rlimit::increase_nofile_limit
respects kern.maxfilesperproc
.
