Power BI Service RAM usage

‎11-09-2016 11:39 AM

Hi All

 

Hopefully just a quick question. 

 

I was looking at RAM use on my server this morning and the Power BI enterprise gateway was using 9GB of memory (RAM). 

 

I don't want  the Power BI service to use this much memory to the detriment of SQL Server/SSIS on the same machine. 

 

Is there a way of limiting the amount of RAM power BI can access?

 

Thanks!
