VMS Help START, /QUEUE, Qualifiers, /WSQUOTA  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

       /WSQUOTA=n

    Defines for a batch job a working set quota, the amount of
    physical memory that is guaranteed to the job. The value set
    by this qualifier overrides the value defined in the user
    authorization file (UAF) of any user submitting a job to the
    queue.

    You also can specify this qualifier for an output execution
    queue. Used in this context, the /WSQUOTA qualifier establishes
    the working set quota of the symbiont process for an output
    execution queue when the symbiont process is created.

    Specify the value of n as a number of 512-byte pagelets on
    Alpha or 512-byte pages on VAX. Note that the operating system
    rounds up this value to the nearest CPU-specific page so that the
    actual amount of physical memory allowed may be larger than the
    specified amount on Alpha.

    If you specify the value 0 or NONE, the working set quota value
    defaults to the value specified in the UAF or by the SUBMIT
    command (if included).

    Working set default, working set quota, and working set extent
    values are included in each user record in the system UAF. You
    can specify working set values for individual jobs or for all
    jobs in a given queue. The decision table shows the action taken
    for different combinations of specifications that involve working
    set size and working set quota values.
