Hey guys,
I was just wondering if the limits (like max memory) set through either launch parameters or environmental variables are individual to each instance of ImageMagick or if they're somehow shared (accumulated)? Ex: if we spawn 3 instances of IM in parallel with "-limit memory 10MiB", will the max memory used by pixel cache be 30MiB? I guess this boils down to the question if each instance has its own pixel cache.
Thanks!
Cristian
Is "-limit" applied to each instance of IM?

Limits apply to each instance of ImageMagick. For system-wide application of limits, use the policy.xml configuration file.
