Yes and No but more No than Yes. If they can execute full Clojure, they can use all the memory they want.
If they have the right to do a very small number of operation (building block for the program), you can limit the program they execute to those having those shape. But capping memory and CPU time is a quite hard static analysis to do. On Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at 7:29 AM, Heinz N.
