| The kernel would try to extend the stack and provided you are not on
| a 32 bit system, it shouldn't ever have a problem with that.

On the other hand, the gain from decreasing the stack size would just be
a bit less book-keeping for the kernel, unless you have overcommit
turned off (which I don't think anybody actually uses), right?
