vsz_limit includes mmap and malloc allocations. dovecot uses setrlimit() to
enforce the memory limit, so getrusage() should give you the relevant value.

You need to include master-service.h to get master_service_get_process_limit,
which returns how many processes of this type can be created before reaching
the limit.

With 2.3 you can use master_service_get_process_limit() for the process limit.
To get vsz_limit, it's probably easiest to use getrlimit().

Latest Mercurial seems to miss defaults for some services e.g. 'managesieve'
and 'lmtp'. Example error message upon start:
dovecotdoveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:
service(managesieve-login): vsz_limit is too low failed!
