src: properly configure default heap limits
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Unless configured, V8 defaults to limiting the max heaps size to 700 MB
or 1400MB on 32 and 64-bit platforms respectively. This default is
based on the browser use-cases and doesn't make a lot of sense
generally. This change properly configures the heap size based on
actual available memory.
