Thanks, Chuck, Which file should I put in the following ? Frank >32-bit systems implementing VM typically could increase user-mode address >space up to 2 GB, although variants on that and other things (ie, where >devices get mapped into memory) make that only an approximation. For >FreeBSD: > ># Certain applications can grow to be larger than the 128M limit ># that FreeBSD initially imposes. Below are some options to ># allow that limit to grow to 256MB, and can be increased further ># with changing the parameters. MAXDSIZ is the maximum that the ># limit can be set to, and the DFLDSIZ is the default value for ># the limit. MAXSSIZ is the maximum that the stack limit can be ># set to. You might want to set the default lower than the max, ># and explicitly set the maximum with a shell command for processes ># that regularly exceed the limit like INND. ># >options MAXDSIZ="(256*1024*1024)" >options MAXSSIZ="(256*1024*1024)" >options DFLDSIZ="(256*1024*1024)" > >Depending on what you're doing, you might well find using a 64-bit platform >(Alpha hardware?
