When idle adaptation is set to `limit`, the system will use the maximum amount of memory that is available, up to the limit specified by the `idle_memory` parameter. The `idle_memory` parameter specifies the maximum amount of memory that the system can use when it is idle.
This process can be useful for systems that are running memory-intensive applications, such as databases or web servers. By setting the idle adaptation parameter to `limit`, you can ensure that the system has the resources it needs to run these applications efficiently.
However, it is important to note that setting the idle adaptation parameter to `limit` can also have a negative impact on the performance of the system. This is because the system will use more memory for its own purposes, which can reduce the amount of memory available for user applications.
Therefore, it is important to weigh the benefits and risks of setting the idle adaptation parameter to `limit` before doing so.
