My understanding is that memory.limit_in_bytes limits RSS and page cache 
use.  I would like to only limit RSS.  Is there currently a way to do 
that with the memory controller?

If not (which I think is the case) could someone point me to a 
discussion on why that's so?  The docs [1] reference an OLS BOFs but I 
don't see any details on RSS+page-cache limiting in the notes [2] from 
that event.


[1] "At OLS, at the resource management BoF, everyone suggested
that we handle both page cache and RSS together." -
