server.builder.ServerBuilder.output_limits(mut, limits: OutputLimits) -> Self
```

Bound how many bytes one command may read from tmux.

tmux answers with as many bytes as it has: a pane with a long history,
a buffer holding a pasted file, a `run-shell` that keeps printing.
Without a ceiling the operating system decides when to stop, and it
does that by killing this process.

## Example

```rust
use libtmux::OutputLimits;

let server = libtmux::Server::builder()
    .output_limits(OutputLimits::default().max_stdout_bytes(1024 * 1024))
    .build()?;
```
