# cpulimit
|

|
|
|

|
|
> A tool to throttle the CPU usage of other processes.
|

|

> More information: <http://cpulimit.sourceforge.net/>.

|
|
- Limit an existing process with PID 1234 to only use 25% of the CPU:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`cpulimit --pid {{1234}} --limit {{25%}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Limit an existing program by its executable name:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`cpulimit --exe {{program}} --limit {{25}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Launch a given program and limit it to only use 50% of the CPU:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`cpulimit --limit {{50}} {{program}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Launch a program, limit its CPU usage to 50% and run cpulimit in the background:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`cpulimit --limit {{50}} --background {{program}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Kill its process if the program's CPU usage goes over 50%:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`cpulimit --limit 50 --kill {{program}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Throttle both it and its child processes so that none go about 25% CPU:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`cpulimit --limit {{25}} --monitor-forks {{program}}`
