Comments on How to limit CPU usage with CPULimit on Ubuntu Linux

The cpulimit command in Linux is a powerful utility that allows users to limit the CPU usage of a specific process. This tool is particularly useful when you want to prevent a process from consuming too much CPU power, which could otherwise impact the performance of other tasks running on the system.

This is nice, but how do you use it with ISPCONFIG to limit clients?

Ten years ago I have written automatic CPU limitation script to automatically control out of control processes (like movie converter etc) that eats CPU aggressively to preset percent value. It is bash script and using cpulimit program described in this tutorial. According to users feedback it was tested on all sort of Linux distributions and working properly.

cpulimit -l 20In every command sample -l is appearing to be an incorrect parameter switch, but as you can see below when I typed it out, the lower case "l" using this font page's font, appears as though it is a capital letter.cpulimit --help-l or --limit

i can see the result exactly as written. but the problem is, it's not limiting the cpu usage but rather, try to match the cpu usage at limited level. so if i set 20% usage of cpu, cpu usage tries to follow the 20% even though no task is run for the whole time.
