I am currently working on porting a program to Linux, and I have been
hitting the SHMMAX limit regularly. I have added another 0 to the #define
in shmparam.h, and everything works, but I'm wondering why SHMMAX is
16MB to begin with. 16MB seems very small these days, and it would be nicer
if it were raised to 256MB or so. (The Sybase for Linux people seem to
be advocating adding another zero, too - see <6v6a4v$ev$1@newnews.nl.uu.net>
in comp.databases.sybase).
Please cc me on any replies, flames, etc, as I don't follow the mailing
list regularly enough.
Cheers,
Trevor Dolby
