Comment:
Memory limit changed to the size of physical memory (rather than 7/8 of
that) in trunk r15129.
Nobody has so far said why it would actually be useful to make the limits
configurable - realistically, a filter which uses more than the size of
physical memory isn't going to be usable, and if you want a smaller limit,
you can use ulimit before running omindex (though that would apply to
omindex itself too as Richard pointed out).
So I think it's best to just close this ticket now.
