I do recall I had the same message on a 5.x-server (running postgresql-server I think, some years ago now :-) ) once in a while. I think I raised it twice to 400. I remember that the recommendation was not to raise it too high in order not to make the kernel panic during boot. -- regards Claus When lenity and cruelty play for a kingdom, the gentlest gamester is the soonest winner.
