I can get at most one (well, I get zero, but that is another problem). This appears to be due to: i386/include/vmparam.h:#ifndef SHMMAXPGS i386/include/vmparam.h:#define SHMMAXPGS 1024 /* XXX until we have more kmap space */ It has said this ever since 2.1.6 (as far back as I looked) When will we have more kmap space? Where did it go? When did they come from? Is this limitation still relevant? Can I just up this? What is the max? XX% of swap?
