Thanks! The settings I mention are from "ancient times" -- specifically RELENG_6 on i386 (I know because I found an old mailing list post of mine discussing the settings with a user). The problem as I said was that mysqld would crap itself (crash and be quite loud about it) if the process allocated too much memory/became too large. I am fairly certain the issue related to the data size, **not** the stack size (but I didn't see the harm in increasing that either). It's good to know I can remove these on amd64. Yay, one less thing in loader.conf I have to deal with... :-) Thanks again! -- | Jeremy Chadwick j...@koitsu.org | | UNIX Systems Administrator http://jdc.koitsu.org/ | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
