Incorrect Memory Limit description #38

The Memory Limit section of the admin page states:

"Default soft limit is 500MB, but GRR should only use about 30MB. Some volatility plugins can use a lot of memory so we try to be generous. Hard limit is double the soft limit. This is configurable from the config file."

  • This appears to be true on Windows, but on Linux there is no hard limit implemented.
  • The hard limit is hard-coded and therefore not configurable.

Yeah limits have changed over time. This section is clearly from a time where we still used Volatility so around 2013. Do you want to just send a PR to fix it?
