The default is 64MB on i386, 512MB on amd64; that's where the getrlimit value comes from unless it's been explicitly reduced somewhere. The kernel MAXSSIZ sets the value of the hard limit for RLIMIT_STACK for proc0, and everything else inherits that. All setrlimit calls for RLIMIT_STACK are explicitly clamped to MAXSSIZ, so there's no way to set that value higher than the kernel limit, and no way for getrlimit to report a value higher than the real limit. -- Andrew (irc:RhodiumToad) -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
