That's a bit too small for today's standards. While loading packages sysinstall blows past this by a LOT but I think (hope...) that's caused by other bugs. I'll look more into why sysinstall's memory use has gotten so out of control as it loads packages but independent of that there really is no reason to leave the limits on datasize and stacksize in place. And they can cause problems for some of the things "modern packages" might be doing via pkg_add which gets run by sysinstall and would inherit the limits. Another insta-MFC probably coming, this is holding up 6.3-RC2. Sysinstall's memory use is so out of control it blows past the current limit before it finishes loading either of the meta-packages kde or gnome...
