Wiki description

Get the maximum memory a script can use.

Specification

;Mono:Gets the memory limit for the script.

The memory limit can be up to 64k.
The default memory limit is 64k^{Prior to scripts being able to set their own limit, the limit was set to 64k}.
The memory limit is not the amount of real memory actually used by the script, just the upper limit on how much it could use.

;LSO:LSO scripts will always use exactly 16k

Examples

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llSetMemoryLimit( 4000 ); // set the memory limit
        
        // display memory usage...
        llSay(0, "Memory used: " + (string)llGetFreeMemory() + " bytes, total memory: " + 
            (string)llGetMemoryLimit() + " bytes." );
    }
}

// outputs 
// Object: Memory used: 124 bytes, total memory: 4000 bytes.
