I'm sure you know about PAE kernels, so I'm assuming there is some other
artificial limit at 2.5GB, like SHM space maybe?

I tried 512kb, then logging off and back on, then starting varnish with 800
threads being tried. Same result:
356 N worker threads
356 N worker threads created
181 N worker threads not created
Note that 356 + 181 is not 800. It actually did not do this initially, it
said 201 worker threads and 840 created (it always does strange things like
this when I try creating more threads than the box can handle). And the
program that spawns threads, still tells me 383 is the max it can make.
