Record-Trace: Enable duration and memory limits#291
Merged

Jun 15, 2026
We have scenarios where record-trace should automatically stop as if a user hit control-c when either a duration or memory limit is hit. Add --duration and --max-memory arguments to allow these scenarios. Honor duration within the parse_until callback directly. Spawn a thread for memory monitoring, using OS specific functions. This ensures that memory monitoring does not affect the consumer threads ability to keep up with data rates. Signed-off-by: Beau Belgrave <beaub@linux.microsoft.com>

Tested on both Windows and Linux manually for both --duration and --max-memory arguments, ensuring they stopped the trace at the correct points.
