On my behalf, Java (XShm) is attempting to shmat several 3Meg chunks of memory.
I can get at most one (well, I get zero, but that is another problem).

This appears to be due to:
i386/include/vmparam.h:#ifndef  SHMMAXPGS
i386/include/vmparam.h:#define  SHMMAXPGS       1024            /* XXX until we have more kmap space */

It has said this ever since 2.1.6 (as far back as I looked)

When will we have more kmap space?
Where did it go?
When did they come from?

Is this limitation still relevant?
Can I just up this?  What is the max?  XX% of swap?
