That doesn't answer Mike's question. The _default_ i386 size is 512M, the _current_ values can be found using ulimit (getrlimit(2)). Note that on non-PAE i386, the maximum process size is limited by the kernel size - there is a total of 4GB address space available and by default, the kernel has 2GB allocated to it. This isn't quite enough if you have 4GB RAM. -- Peter Jeremy
