We're running an X86 box with 512MB ram, nmbclusters = 8192, nkmempages = 81920, and a state limit of 1000000. In testing I got up to about 1.3mil states before it died. I don't think you'll get any higher than this, as I recall at 1.3mil the kernel was using something like 480MB. Adding more physical memory actually decreases the amount of usable kernel memory... -- Paul B.
