As I set the maximum datasize to 1.5G it is OK for now. It is not very optimized :-( Thanks for your help, -- regis ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I don't understand your 1.5 GB reference. I think you set the kernel maximum in /boot/loader.conf and can then set per-user limits up to that value in /etc/login.conf. IIRC the stock unmodified kernel limit is 512 MB per process, and the login.conf default is the same 512 MB. Login.conf can not override the kernel. Something like this needs to be added to /boot/loader.conf: kern.maxdsiz="3G" # think this is the absolute system per-process limit kern.dfldsiz="3G" # think this is the default per-process limit kern.maxssiz="128M" # stack size -- David Kelly N4HHE, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Yes, you will have to tweak a few kernel values to allow more than 512M per process.

You'll probably need to adjust the KVA_PAGES (which, if I recall correctly, splits the space evenly between kernel and user space), but there's no way you can get all the way to 4GB, because the kernel needs *some* of it.
