Is there a way in Splunk universal forwarder to set CPU and Memory consumption for splunkd process to a particular limit ? so that they don't shoot up the threshold limit every now and then ?

We have more than 3000+ forwarders in our environment. Few weeks back unix team has published a report showing all the top process that consume more cpu and memory usage. Splunkd was among the top 3. We need to somehow restrict splunkd from taking up so much usage. on few them the report was showing splunkd had taken more than 90% mem usage. Please suggest a way to mitigate this issue.
