enable_memory_tracker for Search Head Cluster

Path Finder

I have enabled the memory tracker in the limits.conf in an app local directory. System/local does not have this setting. 

I would like to increase the frequency that this check occurs since some users tend to run fast queries that exceed the memory limit I have set.

Does anyone know how to increase the frequency of the memory tracker check? The documentation does not provide this information: https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.1.0/Search/Limitsearchprocessmemoryusage

I checked limits.conf and cannot find any settings to control this.

So either it's undocumented or a different setting.

 

This might be best as a support case, or if it doesn't exist on ideas.splunk.com, but I'd log a support case first in case it does exist...
