Can you give an example of how we will apply this method

you can't cap the memory usage of the program, you can only reduce it. When you are compressing, usually each thread gets its own chunk. Using -lm parameter makes all thread use 1 chunk. As for memory usage, that's highly dependent on the user and the data they are precompressing, if you set very high chunk sizes, be prepared for high memory usage. When decompressing, xtool tries to not use more than 512 MB ram automatically unless if there are large streams or if the recompressing library requires more memory.
