It is just trying to allocate a shared memory segment of 211 MB in size. On Linux where ISM is not supported (macro HAVE_SHM_SHARE_MMU defined to 0), filebench does not even try to request ISM. You can see the code in ipc_ismcreate() in filebench/ipc.c
So may be it is your shell's limit or the hard limit in the system??
