Re: How to limit amount of memory used by vim?


In Vim you can disable undo:
setlocal ul=-1

That's it, excellent advice. I now changed script to turn off "undolevels" and after search/replace commands finish the I turn "undolevels" back on.
:setl ul=-1
commands
:setl ul=-123456

This reduced memory consumption from several GB to 10 MB in my case.

Thanks a lot for help.
