Hello Hideyuki,

there is no option to raise this under `documentation`.

>From the documentation:-

URL: https://doc.dpdk.org/spp/setup/getting_started.html#install-dpdk-and-spp
section: 1.2.1
DPDK version: git clone http://dpdk.org/git/dpdk

from all the examples I have tested with Dpdk 18.11 onwards, not passing
`--socket-limit ` in primary takes up all huge pages

URL: https://doc.dpdk.org/spp/setup/howto_use.html
section: 2.2
Primary command: `sudo ./src/primary/x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/spp_primary \
    -l 1 -n 4 \
    --socket-mem 512,512 \
    --huge-dir=/dev/hugepages \
    --proc-type=primary \
    -- \
    -p 0x03 \
    -n 10 \
    -s 192.168.1.100:5555`

Once you pass option '--socket-limit with --socket-mem' you can limit the
usage. Please update the documentation for reflecting the new memory
requirements.
