Kiosk mode chromium, setting memory limits

I am running chromium in kiosk mode on debian 3.8.13 using command line:

chromium --app=http://localhost --kiosk --disable-pinch --disable-touch-drag-drop --disable-touch-editing --touch-selection-strategy=direction

I have noticed that it’s memory usage continues to grow. I don’t suspect memory leak (at least not at rate I see) as when using standalone (remote) browser and profiling I don’t see this growth. I suspect this is due to garbage collection not being called as it is not hitting memory ceiling.

Does anyone know if one can limit memory usage (setting a cap) like you’d do with java or node (using ----max_old_space_size).

Much appreciated.
