Message-ID: <20020321091355.A15164@trefle.ens.fr> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Process limit maximums are defined in /usr/src/sys/i386/include/vmparam.h For instance, I read: #define MAXTSIZ (128UL*1024*1024) #define MAXDSIZ (512UL*1024*1024) #define MAXSSIZ (64UL*1024*1024) What are the highest values? For instance, on a machine with 2 Gb, setting MAXDSIZ to 512 Mb is poor! I tried 8 Gb, it failed. So what are the highest limits? Is it OS dependent, or hardware dependent? -- Jacques Beigbeder | Jacques.Beigbeder@ens.fr Service de Prestations Informatiques | http://www.spi.ens.fr Ecole normale supérieure | 45 rue d'Ulm |Tel : (+33 1)1 44 32 37 96 F75230 Paris cedex 05 |Fax : (+33 1)1 44 32 20 75 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
