-The @runtime_constraints@ section of a container specifies working RAM (@ram@) and keep cache (@keep_cache_ram@).  If not specified, containers get a default keep cache (@container_default_keep_cache_ram@, default 256 MiB).  The total RAM requested for a container is the sum of working RAM, keep cache, and an additional RAM reservation configured by the admin (@ReserveExtraRAM@ in the dispatcher configuration, default zero).

+The total RAM request is used to schedule containers onto compute nodes.  RAM allocation limits are enforced using kernel controls such as cgroups.  A container which requests 1 GiB RAM will only be permitted to allocate up to 1 GiB of RAM, even if scheduled on a 4 GiB node.  On HPC systems, a multi-core node may run multiple containers at a time.
 
 When running on the cloud, the memory request (along with CPU and disk) is used to select (and possibly boot) an instance type with adequate resources to run the container.  Instance type RAM is derated 5% from the published specification to accomodate virtual machine, kernel and system services overhead.
