If you examine the mysql-server script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d you'll see it supports the "mysql_limits" option for rc.conf. Set mysql_limits="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and the server start with removed limits. You can increase maxdsiz (which is different than limits) by adding a line to loader.conf, something like: kern.maxdsiz=2GB kern.dfldsiz=2GB Note that you can't increase it to more than 3 GB on i386. Another thing is that mysql shouldn't take infinite amounts of memory to work. You need to configure entries in my.cnf to match your limits and maxdsiz (in steady state + estimated spikes).
