What I have problem understanding is the last sentence of this paragraph in the light of your claim that it will results in swapping especially when we consider developers' machines with 512MB/1GB RAM, i.e. machines where memory is not "tight".
Sigh, Linux works the same way. Processes can exceed their HARD ulimit if there happens to be memory available, making RLIMIT_RSS basically useless.
Perhaps we can use --param ggc-min-expand=X --param ggc-min-heapsize=Y options? I've tried here:

and got some interesting results which might be more similar to the machines with low memory.
