I've been learning to program using shared memory and messages. As I write
and debug, I often have to crash a running process which stalls. Of
course, there is a problem with my code but that's all part of the
learning process. The actual problem is that, after a few ctrl-c's, there
isn't enough space to allocate the shared memory space required. A
solution suggested in previous discussions in the freebsd mailing list is
to increase the SHMMAX value in the kernel config, but I'd rather find a
way to recuperate the space I've been wasting needlessly on crashed
processes.

Thanks in advance,
Marc
