This increases the maximum user space stack size, not the stack size in the kernel. If this is what he meant, then yeah, this will do it; he also needs to look at his login class in login.conf, and "ulimit"/"limit"/"limits" (based on the shell he is using), to crank up the user space quota, and not just the top end limit. If he's running in the kernel (the original question appears to be on the order of "can you put too much water in a nuclear reactor?" 8-)), that change won't help him. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
