I think I agree with Daniel here: conceptually the memory used by a map ought to belong to that map's memcg. I can see how the other scheme can be more flexible, but as Daniel points out it seems like it can lead to hard-to-debug errors... (Side note: I'm really excited about this work in general! The ulimit thing has been a major pain...) -Toke
