ok but this does not consider the vsz_limit of the service (indexer in my case)

only the "default_vzs_limit" is given

Dovecot master process uses setrlimit to enforce the limit, so you should be able to get it with RLIMIT_AS or RLIMIT_DATA, iirc it depends a bit on os which is used.

I dont think service->vsz_limit is available on the service itself.

In the dovecot source, I see "service->vsz_limit" giving the answer

How to reach the "service" object from within a plugin ?

Hi

This does not really work

Putting

service indexer-worker {
        vsz_limit = 1G
}

Getrlimit returns "-1"


Is there a proper function giving the actual  process size (memory used) and limit (vsz_limit, either process of default_vsz_limit, as applicable) ?

You could try getrlimit RLIMIT_AS.
