limit value

Limit the amount of profiling data recorded to value megabytes. The limit applies to the sum of the amounts of clock-based profiling data, hardware counter overflow profiling data, and synchronization wait tracing data, but not to sample points. The limit is only approximate, and can be exceeded.

When the limit is reached, no more profiling data is recorded but the experiment remains open and sample points continue to be recorded.

The default limit on the amount of data recorded is 2000 Mbytes. This limit was chosen because the Performance Analyzer cannot process experiments that contain more than 2 Gbytes of data. To remove the limit, set value to unlimited or none.
