Another option to defeat benchmarking. (And also maybe a nice way to prevent crashes, i.e. buggy applications using all CPU / RAM / IO thereby freezing the system.)

Using separate forum thread for that:

constrained system resources program starter wrapper

systemd provides a powerful tool, systemd-run which can constrain how many system resources an application started by it can use. It can limit (non-exhaustive list) use of CPU, memory and disk. However, this powerful too is too complicated to use on the command line. A wrapper is required to make it easily accessible. Use case: running resource intensive tasks (such as backups, compression) without making the system (almost) unusable by the load generated by that task. limit-low design goals: …
