Ways to slow down DH while running Chunky

Greetings, I have been doing testing for a modpack with DH and chunky for loading the world in advance. However while testing I have been adjusting terrain generation features and during those world generations I have been send a message from DH about insufficient memory. It is clear that DH and chunky are fighting over RAM during generation, would there be a way to prevent this in future?

Uninstall DH while chunky is running

Using Chunky to pregenerate for DH is not recommended for several reasons.

The first one is the swiss cheese that might show up when using chunky while DH is installed.
The second reason is that it's pointless, as DH has a build in pregenerator that is better integrated than chunky:

It saves space by only storing LODs, not normal chunks
It is faster to use DH's pregenerator to generate the LODs than first using chunky to generate the normal chunks, and then using DH to convert the normal chunks to LODs
It is part of DH, and therefore always/only called when DH needs it
Chunky calculates it's radius in blocks, confusing the user if they are not aware of this

Distant Horizons' built-in LOD pregenerator is enabled by default, and can be sped up or slowed down by changing the Cpu LoadCpu Load in DH's settings, or disabled by turning off Distant Generation.
If you want to pregenerate both LODs and normal chunks, set the Distance Generator Mode to FullFull under Advanced, World Generator. This will of course take up quite a lot more storage space. Make sure you have C2ME installed if you want to use Full, as the generation speed will be crap if you don't.

Note, this also applied to other similar pregeneration mods.
