memory=16GB
swap=8GB
processors=auto
# localhostForwarding=true  # default, useful if you run servers in WSL and hit them from Windows
# dnsTunneling=true         # helps with flaky corporate DNS, leave off unless needed

# kernelCommandLine entries to consider if aiohttp leaks persist:
#   vm.overcommit_memory=2   # refuse overcommit, catches leaks earlier
#   vm.panic_on_oom=0        # kill the offending process, don't panic the kernel
#   (set via: kernelCommandLine = sysctl.vm.overcommit_memory=2)
