For this, the system performs the following steps: + +. Passes a memory protection of 250MiB to the active users, that is limited at 10% of system memory. +. Enables other cgroup controllers such as CPU, IO, between others. + +This ensures that important session processes get the required resources. As a result, it improves interactivity of graphical sessions in certain situations. It also takes advantage of the benefits of `systemd` and `cgroups` in workstation scenarios.
