 }    Malloc is kind of strange when it comes to allocating the virtual address
 } space and will consume up to twice the amount requested. If you want to malloc
 } more than 64MB, you'll need to further increase the data limit.
 
 Would some one please update the section 7.6 in www.freebsd.com/FAQ/FAQ.html
 to add this information in?
 
 Thanks,
