>Oh, well anyhow _SC_ARG_MAX is set at 64k which I have found exceedingly >low. How do you change this anyways? It's not easily changed without causing other problems. 64K already results in potentially 1MB of memory being temporarily consumed. I need to make some changes to kern_exec.c to add support for a resource wait when "string" space isn't allocateable. Right now it returns ENOMEM if more than 16 processes simultaneously exec. This is an extremely rare condition, but possible. -DG David Greenman Core Team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
