When you start a container, there is a cgroup created automatically 
where all the processes of the container will belong.

In order to modify a cgroup subsystem value use the lxc-cgroup -n <name> 
<subsys_name> <value>

For example : lxc-cgroup -n foo memory.max_usage_in_bytes 268435456

Or specify it in the configuration file to automatically set it up when 
the container starts.

  lxc.cgroup.memory.max_usage_in_bytes = 268435456
