STEAMPIPE_MEMORY_MAX_MB

Set a soft memory limit for the steampipe process. Steampipe sets GOMEMLIMIT for the steampipe process to the specified value. The Go runtime does not guarantee that the memory usage will not exceed the limit, but rather uses it as a target to optimize garbage collection.

Set the STEAMPIPE_MEMORY_MAX_MB to 0 disable the soft memory limit.

Usage

Set the memory soft limit to 2GB:

export STEAMPIPE_MEMORY_MAX_MB=2048

Disable the memory soft limit:

export STEAMPIPE_MEMORY_MAX_MB=0
