Unable to set 4 GB of service memory limits, only get 3.75 or 4.25 GB, also allows double memory than system available

In my CAD software, the sliders can be clicked on, and then you can manually enter a value. The best of both worlds. Maybe we can implement this method.

Sure. Uno momento.

Front End
I can't upload a MP4 video (less than 1mb). Not enough permission. In the video it shows an alternative method where you can click on the slider and input a value.
Here's a screenshot showing a slider in default state and when it's clicked on.
I found an online website to conver the mp4 to gif!

I think most UI points are already touched on in the other forum thread @p44 linked. So lets treat the original thread as the feature request. I will merge this into the other then.
For the memory limit as such, this is just the upper limit and not some memory allocation. Also the limit is half RAM and half swap, thus "doubling" effect. And well, exact values do help probably with OCD triggering, but otherwise it has no real impact for the system itself

I still don't really get this statement you keep repeating.
Surely the upper limit does have a real impact, in that it sets the upper limit, which effects the upper limit of how much RAM an app can use, no?
(and hence the whole point of having the setting in the first place, and why one has to increase the limit when apps keep running out of memory) -
The comment was about the value itself, a couple of megabytes lower or higher won't have any practical impact on the system, especially not if the system has a lot of memory.
@nebulon OK, but in the "Unable to set 4 GB of service memory limits, only get 3.75 or 4.25 GB" example 250MB is more than "a couple", and lots of people don't have lots of RAM as most people are running the cheapest VPS they can.
(although personally I've currently got a server with more RAM than I use and so have given up on my OCD about this and just randomly click any higher number when an app runs out of ram, a better UX is clearly needed and the lack of it causing frustration)
