This isn't a question of not being implemented yet. Windows does not, and is unlikely to ever, support rlimits. And the spec only defines
process.rlimitsfor POSIX platforms. Folks writing Windows configs will only be settingprocess.rlimitsas an out-of-spec extention. We, as runtime validators, are unlikely to write such configs. But if we useruntimetestin a container launched from such a config, we should silently ignore that out-of-spec extention, just like we silently ignore all other out-of-spec extentions, instead of logging a warning.Previous discussion of this issue in the config-validation context here.
