The memory usage limiter can be enabled with the command line option B<--memlimit=>I<limit>. Often it is more convenient to enable the limiter by default by setting the environment variable B<XZ_DEFAULTS>, e.g.\& B<XZ_DEFAULTS=--memlimit=150MiB>. It is possible to set the limits separately for compression and decompression by using B<--memlimit-compress=>I<limit> and B<--memlimit-decompress=>I<limit>. Using these two options outside B<XZ_DEFAULTS> is rarely useful because a single run of B<xz> cannot do both compression and decompression and B<--memlimit=>I<limit> (or B<-M> I<limit>) is shorter to type on the command line.
