Re: Re: Cannot brk more than 500M on kfreebsd-i386



Greetings, and thanks!

Indeed this is the case.  My question -- why the unusually low limit?  I
suspect it is because of the default .text, .data, and shared library
loading addresses.  One can use a linker script to place .text and .data
above the shared libraries, in which case more than 500M should be
available as .data.  Is there some other reason for the limit than this?
If not, is this value runtime configurable by the superuser somewhere in
/proc? 

Take care,
