- new upstream version 2.5 * Added some protection against causing a fork bomb when the throttled process is a parent to LimitCPU. - includes 2.4 * Introduced ability to watch children of the target process. This means forks of the process we are throttling can also be throttled, using the "-m" or "--monitor-forks" flags. - includes 2.3 * Applied patch to man page which fixes -s description. * Added --foreground, -f flag for launching target programs in the foreground. LimitCPU then waits for the target process to exit. Should be useful in scripts. - rebase cpulimit-2.2-do_not_forget_version.patch - cleanup with spec-cleaner
- new upstream version 2.2 + Escaped double-dashed in manual page to avoid warnings from Debian check tool. + Added -s --signal flag. This flag allows the user to specify an alternative signal to send a watched process when cpulimit terminates. By default we send SIGCONT. The -s flag can accept a number (1-35) or a written value such as SIGCONT, SIGSTOP, SIGINT, SIGTERM. - from version 2.1 + Added the --quiet (-q) flag to make limitcpu run silently + Make sure error messages are printed to stderr. + Placed source code in Subversion (svn) repository. Accessable using the SVN checkout command. For details, please see the README file. - from version 2.0 + Added the -- flag to make sure child processes run with command line flags would not confuse cpulimit. + Corrected output of child process name in verbose mode. - added cpulimit-2.2-do_not_forget_version.patch
- Updated to version 1.9: + Added --kill (-k) and --restore (-r) flags to allow target processes to be killed and restored rather than simply throttled. - Updates from version 1.8: + When displaying verbose output, cpulimit now redisplays the column headers every 20 lines. + Fixed limiting CPU usage on multicore machines when the desired usage limit is great than 100%.
- Upstream update to version 1.7: * Minor code cleanup. * Make sure we do not try to throttle our own process. * Added "tarball" option to the Makefile to assist in packaging. Moved version number to the makefile. * Added version information to CPUlimit's help screen. * Detect the number of CPU cores on the machine and cap the % we can limit. 1 CPU means we can limit processes 1-100%, 2 means 1-200%, 4 means 1-400%. * Removed extra priority changes. We now only bump our priority once, if we have access to do so. Also simplified priority increases so it's flexible rather than "all or nothing". * Since we now attempt to detect the number of CPUs available, we also give the user the ability to override our guess. The -c and --cpu flags have been added for this purpose. * Commands can be launched and throttled by appending commands to the end of CPUlimit's argument list. For example: cpulimit -l 25 firefox
