Internal memory limits, just like internal time limits, are often important for
performance. Is there a fundamental difference between this feature and, for
example, the time limit within iPDB?
I think we should not be too much focused on the specific time and memory limits
we typically use in experiments. Other people might want to set a higher/lower
time/memory limit, and then limiting time/memory for specific computations might
become more relevant.
To make experiments more reproducible, it's sufficient not to use this
functionality. It doesn't have to be removed from the code.
