Comment (by dimpase):

 Replying to [comment:31 vbraun]:
 > No, the virtual memory limit should only be used for the pool size if
 either it was set by hand to a relatively small value or if the address
 space is small compared to ram size (32-bit PAE).

 The docstring for virtual memory limit  says:
 {{{
     This is the value set by ``ulimit -v`` at the command line or
     a practical limit if no limit is set.
 }}}
 This does not describe the current implementation. (And it wasn't really
 true before, either).
