At 1.5GB we only get one in the elf loader, and it seems to work okay set that way. 2GB I get all sorts of overflows in the vm subsystem and havent tried to run that way. Due to this Im assuming that its impossible to get large processes in FreeBSD without some major work, is this true? -Crh Charles Henrich Manex Visual Effects henrich@flnet.com http://orbit.flnet.com/~henrich To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
