Hello I feel stupid, but I am confused about kern.maxdsiz (or datasize via limits command) on FreeBSD amd64.
I have seen many posts and suggestions to raise it to 1G. However it seems this only applies to i386. By default, on servers I have with 4G of physical memory, and 2X that of swap, I am showing a reported datasize limit of 33554432KB. far in excess of even my physical and swap combined! I have seen suggestions from mysql for maxdsize to be set to 1G. Obviously no such problem with amd64? Is this just a high number chosen to let things run wild? (basically unlimited) I have been having some problems with running squid and my servers locking up. I think, from the process exceeding my physical memory and the server getting very unhappy trying use so much swap. (since it seems the process size is so unlimited) Could anyone help shed some light on this for me? If I have a server with 4G of memory, what would be a safe /sane allowable maximum for datasize? (assuming a light networking load) Thanks!
