Stop task based on resource usage?

Is there a way in Deadline to have a task be killed if it’s using up too much of a resource? For example, if a job is using more than 90% of the slaves memory the task will get killed.

Which OS? Would it be easier to have the system manage this and just kill the task when it reaches over 90%> memory?

Or are you looking to fail the task and reallocate it to only s̶l̶a̶v̶e̶s̶ ‘workers’ with 32> 64> 128> RAM?

We’re using Win10. What I’m trying to do is prevent slaves from getting knocked off the farm by memory hungry tasks. I don’t really have the resources to develop a local solution, which is why I was curious if Deadline had this functionality.
