Hi Daniel, I don't think that anybody might think that Kamailio is greedy with resources. A Raspberry Zero for 5 Dollar has 512 MB RAM and was released in 2015.
Some years ago we also increased PKG memory default for similar reasons, so I think this is a reasonable change after all the years as well.

Personally I didn't meet any case lately where the default value has to be changed for shm and the defaults should be for the avearage use of Kamailio -- that's the reason I wanted to know about some of these cases. I do not want to get Kamailio look greedy in resources because the defaults are tuned for corner cases. I did increase many of the internal buffers/sizes whenerver there were related reports, but didn't noticed the default shm is even getting closer to being filled up for new comers playing with kamailio. If there is a need for such increase for new comers, I would rather keep the default in the source code lower and increase it in startup scripts. Who starts from command line is expected to have some knowledge about its parameters, easily set the -M and -m.
