If you're actually seeing faiures with 32k, then 48k is too conservative. I suggest 128k.
I tried once to increase the limit to 64k, but without a failing test it didn't get any support. The presence of native thread local variables is the biggest reason for blowing the stack; no limit is actually safe! That's a deep hotspot/glibc problem.
