because of memory or disk space restrictions

Explanation:
If there's simply not enough memory or disk space available, you might not even be able to perform the action you want, let alone save memory or disk space while doing so.

Disk space and computer memory are probably the most common examples. There are other resources that deal with 'space', i.e. the amount of characters that can be stored in a text string, due to buffer size restrictions.

Limitations is another alternative for restrictions
